Today let’s talk about how to delete objects that has dependencies associated to them.
By default, when you try to delete a report that is used in a document, for example, you will see a mesage like this:
You can change this behavior to allow deletion of dependencies.
To do that you just have to:
1. Open Project Configuration;
2. Go to Advanced;
3. Check the “Enable deleting of object dependencies“;
4.Click ok and go to the Tools Menu and select My Preferences.
5. Go to Object Deletion. This box only displays if the “Enable deleting of object dependencies” in project configuration is checked.
6. Check “Offer ability to delete dependent objects upon object deletion”.
You can also choose which location Developer/Desktop can save a deletion log.
Now when you try to delete a report that has dependents, you will see a mesage like this:
You can hit the “Delete All” button and delete ALL DEPENDENCIES OBJECTS. My friend, just becareful with it, ok?
Hope it helps!
God bless you!
