Working With the Master Index Data Manager

ProcedureTo Lock a Field in the SBR

  1. Using one of the search methods described in Searching for Object Profiles on the MIDM, display the object profile containing the field you want to lock on the Record Details page.

  2. At the bottom of the page, click Edit EUID.

  3. Scroll to the SBR field you want to lock. Only parent object fields can be locked.

  4. If necessary, change the value of the field to be locked.

  5. Click the padlock icon to the left of the field.


    Note –

    A closed padlock indicates an unlocked field that can be locked. An open padlock indicates a locked field that can be unlocked.


  6. Click OK On both dialog boxes that appear.

  7. Click Save at the bottom of the page, and then click OK on the confirmation dialog box.

    The field is now locked and cannot be edited by updates to source records until the lock is removed. The link icon is also removed since a locked field cannot be linked to a source record field.
