Admin Use Only fields are a great way to show specific operations or fields in your page only to admins and not to donors. This is done by entering a password into your page that will reveal those options.
For example, you may want to reveal a hidden notes field where you can leave notes about the donation or donor so you can reference the specific context later.

FAQs
Is the password case-sensitive?
No, passwords are not case sensitive. But the password is space-sensitive. If you set up the password to be one word, typing it as two wouldn't work.
How will this pull into my exports?
The hidden fields will be populated with data when used, and empty when not used.
