Cause

On an effective dated MDF object, each time you insert a new record of data and make modifications to the field values from the previous value, the strike through is shown by default to the previous value with the new value when Hide Old Value is set to 'No'

Resolution

  • If you don’t want to see the strikethrough for the field, set Hide Old Value to Yes.
  • **Note the same applies to the portlet history, the strike through is shown by default to the previous value with the new value

  • **Note the same applies to workflow approvals, the strike through is shown by default to the previous value with the new value
