Edit and delete columns

After a column has been created it can be edited or deleted. Go to the

Admin

>

Active iSheets

then select

More actions

and

Manage columns

for the iSheet you need to edit.

If the iSheet has many columns, use the

Search Column names and description

field to quickly locate a column with the name or description.

This page displays a list of all of the columns for that iSheet. From here you can click on the

More actions

icon for the column you wish to delete and then select

Delete

.

You are asked to confirm the deletion. Select

Delete

to complete the action.

The

Edit Column

page is identical to the

Add Column

page used initially for creating and configuring the column. Nearly all column configuration settings can be changed, except for the

Type of column

.

If there is a need to change the type of column after items have been added to an iSheet, first create an entirely new column with the correct column type. Then move the data from the old column into the new column. Depending on the type of data and number of rows, this can be done by manually re-entering the data, or by using the import process to copy the data into the

Import template

and for import into the iSheet in bulk. Only, then after the data has been copied and brought back into the iSheet should the old column be deleted.

More information on importing data can be found here.
