Delete object definitions

Delete objects you no longer require to keep data up to date. In order to restore the status of a database after unintentionally deleting something, please use versioned databases or back up your databases before you delete items.

Prerequisite

You require the Delete access privilege for the groups in which the items are saved.

Procedure

  1. Select the object you want to delete, for example, in the Explorer tree. To delete several objects simultaneously, select the objects on, for example, in the Explorer tab in the Objects area.

  2. Press the Delete key. If objects have occurrences in models, a dialog opens. You can use the buttons to delete these object definitions.

The object definitions are deleted.

You can also delete object definitions together with the models in which they have occurrences.
