Part Deletion

It is possible to delete all or some versions of a Part. In the former case, the Part is deleted from Aras Innovator completely. For details on the latter case, refer to section Version Deletion.

To delete a Part completely, a user must have the Delete rights granted in Permissions for all Life Cycle states the Part has including the current one. For example, if the Part is currently in the Released state and was in Preliminary before, the user must have the Delete rights granted in Permissions for both states. An error message will be provided if the user does not have Delete rights. For details on access rights, refer to section Permissions. This subsection assumes the user has these rights.

You can delete a Part either directly from the Part form, or by using the context menu in the Parts Search Grid.

To delete a Part completely through the Part Form:

1. Open the Part.
2. On the Part toolbar, click More ->Delete -> Delete All Versions. A notification dialog appears.
3. Click OK to delete the Part completely. Click Cancel to cancel.

To delete a Part using the context menu:

1. Go to the Part Search Grid.
2. Right-click the Part -> Delete All Versions. A notification dialog appears.
3. Click OK to delete the Part completely. Click Cancel to cancel.
