Construct CT - Hide Trade Description
Overview
The 'Hide Trade Description' checkbox configuration provides flexibility for organizations that wish to limit or simplify the display of trade information in Construct CT. Administrators can easily control visibility without affecting other modules or workflows. This feature allows users to:
-
Keep screens uncluttered by not showing trade description.
-
Limit the visibility of trade details across the board.
-
Maintain consistent privacy settings across all Construct CT functions.
When enabled, trade descriptions are replaced with asterisks (******) across all Construct CT–related screens. This option helps simplify views or restricts visibility of detailed trade information for privacy or compliance reasons.
NOTE: The 'Hide Trade Description' checkbox is available in Nexus 01.
