Notes

New columns are not visible until the process is deployed (or redeployed). Before deploying a new Commerce Process, manage all components of the process.
Column mappings, renamed columns or other changes are not visible until the process is deployed (or redeployed).

After creating columns, you can order how they appear on the Transaction Manager page.
To map or reorder columns in a deployed Commerce Process, contact an implementation engineer. This functionality is hidden from administration after the Commerce Process is deployed.

Use caution when deleting a column because it is not possible to recover the deleted data. Upon deletion, all associated column mapping are also deleted. To delete columns from a Transaction Manager in a deployed Commerce Process, contact an Implementation Engineer. This functionality is hidden from administration after the Commerce Process is deployed.

If no Data Column Mapping are available, then no Process Manager Columns can be mapped. In that case, the Transaction Manager will show just the ID# of the quote created.
