Using Admin Mode to Delete KPI Instances
For users with administrative privileges. the Analytics Overview page displays an icon that activates a different version of the page, known as Admin Mode. This mode enables users to view and select specific KPI instances for deletion. The ability to delete KPI instances is useful to remove defunct or superfluous KPI instance from the various Optimize pages so that you can concentrate on useful information. For example, in Optimize for B2B, if you are no longer interested in monitoring a specific process, you may want to remove the related KPI instances.
The standard Analytics Overview search functionary is available in Admin Mode, so you can search and filter KPI instances according to specified criteria. Also, Admin Mode offers the same viewing options as the Analytics Overview page. When you select one or more KPI instances and click the Delete button in Admin Mode, a Delete job is scheduled and runs as soon as the system has available resources. If you select a KPI instance that contains child instances, all of the children are selected automatically, though they are not shown as selected on the page. KPI instance deletion jobs can be monitored using the Job Manager pages. Note that KPI instances that have been scheduled for deletion but not yet deleted remain on the Analytics Overview page/Admin Mode, but the Date/Time reading is replaced with “Delete Pending”; however, if new readings are received before the KPI instance is deleted, these will be shown in the interface.
You can also access Admin Mode as a standalone page not linked to the Analytics Overview page from the My webMethods menu by clicking Administration > Data Management > KPI Instance Deletion.
To select and delete KPI instances using Admin Mode:
1. From the Analytics Overview page, activate Admin Mode by clicking the Admin Mode icon. Remember that this icon is visible only to users with administrative privileges.
Admin Mode is activated and displayed.
2. If desired, use the Search mechanism at the top of the page to narrow the list of displayed KPI instances. This Search mechanism is identical to the one on the Analytics Overview page, so you can refer to the preceding section for more information about using search functionality.
3. Click the appropriate boxes in the Select column to select the KPI instances that you want to delete.
4. Click the Delete button to initiate a Delete job to delete the selected KPIs. You must click through several dialog boxes in order to confirm the deletion.
5. If you activated Admin Mode from the Analytics Overview page, you can return to the Analytics Overview page by clicking the Return Monitor Mode icon.
