Hidden Setting for Line Item Editor Columns

The Hidden Setting for columns in the Line Item Editor is primarily used for the following scenarios:

Handling Field Values for Calculations

When specific field values are required for advanced calculations, these fields must be included in the Line Item columns. However, users may not need to see all of these fields on the screen. By using the hidden setting, these fields can be excluded from display while still being available for calculations.

Preventing Formula Field Errors

Formula fields in the Line Item object are recalculated during save operations. If a formula depends on a field with a null value, it may result in an error. To prevent this, the hidden setting ensures that required fields are added to the columns and assigned appropriate values without being visible to users.
