Masking a synonym

Inherited synonyms keep the status from the parent synonym list.

Use this procedure to mask a synonym from a child synonym list, so that the autocoding algorithm treats it as Inactive.

Select Coding Setup > Synonym Lists.
The Synonym Lists page appears.
Click the Name link for a synonym list.
The [Synonym List Name] page appears.
Select one or more synonyms.
Select Actions > Mask.
The Reason for Change dialog box appears.
In the Reason field, enter a description for the change.
Click Accept.
