Unable to delete custom fields

Posted on by 40

HI there,

I have had to recreate certain fields in one of my entities in order to have the new fields as currency rather than whole number.

I need to use the same name/schema name, however I cannot delete the old useless fields.

The confirm deletion loading box appears but it sticks on there and doesn't delete anything.

Is there another way I can delete these fields?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

NB: I have removed the dependencies from each field.

    Hello,

    Do you have the role System Administrator?

    Do you confirm that you are mentioning a field that is unmanaged in the environment? it's your DEV environment?

    Hi,

    I go to settings - customization - entities - the entity - fields  - click the X next to the field I want deleted.

    It gets stuck here:

    Hello,

    Can you provide a screenshot of the error? Are you using the Power Apps maker?
