I am relatively new to BC development and am building a package to remove fields/information which are not relevant to a specific customer vertical we work in. I can see that I can hide/add fields to cards and hide/add actions too but I would like to remove options from drop downlists such as the one below to clean up the screen for users and to prevent them from selecting options for areas of the system they don't have configured in error

I can see you can add fields to look up lists such as Items on a sales line but is it possible to remove the below?

Similarly we want to remove the Intrastat Tab from Customer / Vendor records but it does not allow you to do this through AL like with other groupings on the record cards.

I have a use case for this again from another client business where they want to restrict the options available in the drop down for specific areas of the system they don't want people selecting in error.

Is this something which can be customised if so how?

Appreciate the comment but I am still keen to understand how I can achieve it, i would prefer users not to see menu options they do not need to

Be careful about removing options, reorganizing these can change functionality....

That suggestion appears to work for custom build drop downs i need to hide the campaign field on the standard customer discount/ customer price card.

I can't get the ValueAllowed property to work when modifying a field
