Add field at table level but show only at Entity level for update/Create

Hi,
 
I want to add a field in a table but that field should be used only at the entity level and should not be displayed at the form level on any form where the table is used.
For eg. 
If I add a enum NOYES field flag on VendTable named as "isActive" then this flag should be visible only at the entity level of vendor i.e. vendVendorV3Entity for import and export both , but it should not be able to update / see the flag from the front end.
 
Can you share any idea on how this can be achieved.
 
Thanks,
VS

    You can set the Visible property of the field to No; that will make sure it's not available in any forms or so, if you really want that. I'm not sure what will happen in entities; I guess you can use such a field there. If it's a problem, you can always use a computed column or so.
