Setting these field permissions will affect record layouts, list views, and reports.

  8. If any field needs to be hidden for a specific profile, adjust the permissions for the Hidden option by selecting the checkbox. This ensures that the field is not visible or included in outputs for users with that profile, maintaining confidentiality or simplifying the view where necessary.

  9. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save.
