  1. Active

    Off hides it and stops collecting it. Values already on records stay.

  2. Edit, then Remove

    For good. Values already on records stay.

Read the subtitles

Open Identity from the platform tabs. To stop collecting Livery and fittings for now, switch it off and confirm. It is hidden and no longer collected; values already on records stay, and it can be turned on again.

To remove one for good, choose Edit on its row, then Remove, and confirm. Here, Length in metres goes. Values already on records stay, but it is no longer collected or shown.
