You may make changes to the crediting group name regardless of whether the crediting group is currently referenced throughout the system. However, attempted changes to the product amount unit and the rounding factor may be blocked caused by data mapping. (if this kind of modification is needed you may need to reach out to technical services to discuss the situation and they can direct you further).

Click on the circle to either activate or deactivate the crediting group.
:::Tip Note If the crediting group is already mapped in the system, you cannot deactivate the crediting group until you unmap it everywhere in your system.
