Default fields created by contact sync

When you start the contact synchronisation, fields are automatically created. For example, birthday, instant messenger or postal address.

For various reasons, these fields often make no sense in the CRM and are just confusing.  You can't remove them yourself and according to the support team, the colleagues from the technical department can't either.

Hence my wish:

  1. As an admin, you can delete these fields like user-defined fields.
  2. You can deactivate this contact sync at company level. It does more harm than good.

    this would be a great function - please make it possible to delete or un-select, deactivate these fields. It makes no sense to have the instant messager field visible all the time - or birthday? 

    Please, Pipedrive help!

    hey, me too. i could not imagine why it is not possible to put this fields away. Think on the amount of users which are not happy with this situation

    @Inês Batata , do you know if anyone at Pipedrive has this on his list? I am receiving questions regarding these fields twice a week. And it hurts saying that they can not be removed, even by the support.

    this would be so great - it would just "clean" up the contact view so much... 

  • @Steffen Hepp wenn das für Dich noch wichtig ist, könntest Du das jetzt upvoten :-) aja, und @Gerhard Grosse

  • Still - after some time (years) this feature would be great and help admins a lot.
