I have a cyclic issue between a flow and 3 custom checkbox fields and I need to know how to resolve it.
I had accidentally created 3 checkbox fields on a Call Center object and added these 3 fields to an assignment statement in a Screen Flow. The flow version was at version 6 before I began making my updates.
I activated the flow but discovered that those fields were not neededin this flow's Assignment element. So, I deactivated the flow and saw that both the Activateand Save buttons were grayed out while the Save As button wasaccessible/clickable.
This meant that when I tried to remove those 3 fields within the flow's Assignment element, I was forced to click Save As to update the flow to the next version (version 7) instead of simply saving it at the current version. This was not what I wanted.
When I try to remove the 3 fields , Salesforce did not let me deletethem due to the previous version 6. The error message I got was: Thiscustom field is referenced elsewhere in salesforce.com. (with a linkto flow version 6)
When I tried to delete version 6 of my Screen Flow I got the followingerror:This flow version is referenced elsewhere in Salesforce.Remove the usage and try again. and it gives me the link of theproblematic flow (version 6).
How do I successfully remove these 3 fields without having to refresh the sandbox and lose any other work that I have done which is unrelated to this flow? Thanks
