We all are aware that we can hide a field using Client side API or Javascript and Jquery. But what if we want to avoid scripting language and do this using standard code and standard functionality of SAGE CRM. On doing some investigation we came across a code wherein we can hide the field by writing a code inside create script of Sage CRM.

Suppose we want to hide SLA field if Company type is Prospect. Now there are two ways to achieve this:

1. By writing CRM API or Jquery code inside custom content.
2. By writing code in create script code.
