Deleting Web Services
If you are not the owner of a Web Service asset, you cannot delete the Web Service unless you have Full permission on the Web Service (granted though either a role-based permission or instance-level permission).
The following general guidelines apply when deleting a Web Service asset in CentraSite Control:
*Deleting a Web Service permanently removes it from the catalog.
*A Web Service can only be deleted if it is not the target of an association from another registry object.
*When you delete a Web Service, CentraSite removes the catalog entry for the Web Service (that is, it removes the instance of the Web Service from CentraSite's object database). Also note that:
*The performance metrics and event information of the Web Service are also deleted.
Note:  
When you delete the Web Service, this information is deleted by the built-in action Delete RuntimeEvents and RuntimeMetrics of Service, which is installed with CentraSite.
*When you delete a composite Web Service, all of its nonshared components are also deleted.
*Deleting a Web Service will not remove:
*Other assets to which the Web Service refers (unless the reference is to an asset that is a nonshared component of the Web Service you are deleting). For example, if you are deleting a Web Service which has a Consumes or Consumed By relationship with other services in the registry, the related services will not be deleted.
*Supporting documents that are attached to the Web Service.
*Earlier versions of the Web Service. Only the latest version of the Web Service can be deleted; to remove earlier versions, they must be purged.
*You cannot delete a Web Service if:
*The Web Service is in a pending state (for example, awaiting approval).
*Any user in your CentraSite registry is currently modifying the Web Service.

Note:  
If you have selected a set of Web Services, where one or multiple Web Services are in a pending state (for example, awaiting approval), CentraSite ignores the pending list of Web Services, and deletes any remaining Web Services for which you have the required permission.
