How do I remove Lead Status form the interface?

It is now not needed and confusing as we are using the new Leads capability in Sales which has it’s own native workflow and lead status naming convention. This is effectively deprecated in my instance but as it is a default property I can’t seem to control it and it is going to end us in bad data if I can’t manage it effectively.

Hi @DBrazil,

This is not possible currently - but it’s something the prospecting product team hasn’t thought about before. With the prospecting tool enabled, the lead status property should disappear from the UI, I agree.

I’d recommend submitting this as feedback in the HubSpot Ideas section of the community which is monitored by the product team.

Best regards!

Thanks I was worried that might be the case.

Have I logged it in [the right place](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Remove-lead-status-from-UI-when-prospecting-tool-is-enabled/idi-p/880779#M160884)?
