Disabling or Enabling a Shorthand Alias
You can disable or re-enable individual existing aliases.
To disable a shorthand alias:
1. Navigate to the Shorthand Aliases window.
2. Select the name and structure of the key flexfield for which you want to disable shorthand aliases.
3. Select the alias you want to disable.
4. In the Effective alternative region, uncheck the Enabled check box, or set either From to a date later than today or To to the date of the last day the alias should be valid.
If the Enabled check box is unchecked, the alias is disabled regardless of the effective dates given.
To re-enable a disabled shorthand alias:
1. Navigate to the Shorthand Aliases window.
2. Select the name and structure of the key flexfield for which you want to enable shorthand aliases.
3. Select the alias you want to enable.
4. In the Effective alternative region, check the Enabled check box if it is not already checked.
Also, set either From to a date no later than today or To to the date of the new last day the alias should be valid. Alternatively, you can blank out the effective dates as appropriate to make your alias valid.
If the Enabled check box is unchecked, the alias is disabled regardless of the start and end dates given.
