Error description
Before Discovery v4.6.1 it was very easy to exclude columns from PF Key discovery. There was a utility in the tool bar of the PF Keys tab. In v4.6.1, the only way I found to exclude columns from PF Key discovery was in the "Manage Columns" area in CA and Data Sets. Is that the easiest way? That makes the user leave PF Keys and go to another tab and open "Manage Columns", then find the column, then click "Modify Columns", then enable the "Exclude in PF Key Discovery" option, then close the dialogs. Also, it does not allow you to globally exclude a column name regardless of the table name, meaning excluding the column MULTI_COMPANY_NUMBER that belongs to any table. You can exclude the column from all existing tables, but if you import new tables with that column, they will not be excluded. You would have to open the Manage Columns utility again and find any new occurrences of that column.
