    After doing the obsolete reasoning and creating a new app file with the field removed. 

    You need to upload the app file from extension management. 
    In the options of the upload extension, choose force. 
    this will upload the app file with the field deleted.

    First You need to go to that field and mark following properies.
    visible=false;
    enable=false;
     
    add the extra information for developer.
     
    ObsoleteReason = 'Reason'; (Use this property to inform developers about an object or element that will become obsolete in time or is already obsolete)
     
    ObsoleteState = Pending/Removed; (As per status.)
     
    ObsolateTag='19.0';( version information from which it apply)
     
    Example:-
    field(89; Picture; BLOB)
    {
    Caption = 'Picture';
    ObsoleteReason = 'Replaced by Image field';
    ObsoleteState = Removed;
    SubType = Bitmap;
    ObsoleteTag = '19.0';
    }
     
    Thank you.
    Regurds,
