Disabling triggers using TDTM
Disabling triggers using TDTM is a quick and easy three-step process. The more difficult part—understanding when to disable triggers—follows these steps:
- To disable triggers for NPSP, go to the waffle menu and open the Trigger Handlers tab.
- A quick recommendation to make it easier to use is to go to the All list view and add the Active, Class, Object, Load Order, and Trigger Action fields. This will make it much easier to find what you need.

- Clicking on the trigger handler name will open the record for editing.

Each field is editable in the record; however, the most useful fields are the Active checkbox and Load Order. Other edits may not have the desired effect since these triggers are part of the NPSP managed package.
