Common Considerations

You can't disable these types of data stream fields.

  • Fields used as part of the Primary Key, Event Date Time, Organization Unit Identifier or Record Modified fields.
  • System-generated fields such as Data Source, Data Source Object, cdp_sys_SourceVersion, and Internal Organization.
  • Fields used as source fields in any other formula field.
  • Fields of a data stream that is deployed from a Package.
  • Fields of data stream ingesting data from Marketing Cloud Engagement Bundle and Mobile SDK streams.

Considerations for Disabling a Field in CRM

  • To delete a field from your connected CRM, first disable that field from Data 360 to avoid ingestion errors in data streams.
  • After you disable a field, you can delete the field through the connected Salesforce CRM Object Manager admin tool. Then remove the field from the Data 360 permission set in that connected Salesforce CRM.
