Deleting an object does not permanently remove the object.
It marks the object as deleted, and stops users from being able to
edit it. To permanently remove the object, you must purge it after
you have deleted it.
Before you begin
To prevent broken links, all in-links must be removed before
the object can be deleted. If the object has descendants, the descendants
are also deleted. All in-links to the descendants must be deleted
before the parent object can be deleted.
About this task
When you delete an object that has an out-link, the link
is not deleted until you purge the object and save the module.
To delete, undelete or purge an object, you must have
delete access to the object and to all objects in the tree below it.
Note: You
cannot delete or purge objects that have descendants if sorting is
turned on.
Procedure
- In the module, select the object, or objects that you want
to delete, undelete, or purge. If you cannot see deleted
objects, select to display them.
