When using WPS Field Management, the most common questions focus on visibility changes, deletion impact, and field order updates; this FAQ covers 3 common questions.
FAQ
Does hiding a field affect what other collaborators see?
- Open the Field Management panel.
- Find the field you want to hide and click the eye icon.
- After the field is hidden, other collaborators may also see the updated visibility state when viewing the table.
Can I recover data after deleting a field?
- In the Field Management panel, click the ··· icon next to the target field.
- Before selecting Delete, confirm whether the data in that field is still needed.
- Deleting a field also removes the data in that field. If recovery is needed, try checking version history if it is available in your workflow.
What happens if I delete a field that is referenced by a formula?
- Check whether the target field is referenced by a formula field.
- If the field is already used by a formula, deleting it may cause formula results to become incorrect.
- Update the formula reference first, then delete the field.
