Administering Repositories › Delete an Item Path

Delete an Item Path

You can delete an item path in existing data views when the item path meets the following requirements:

• The path and all its subitems are not associated to any project.
• The path and all its subitems are associated to only one project, even if that project already includes changes for them.
• The path and all its subitems are associated to more than one project, but the path and none of the items were changed in any project.
• The path does not have an item that was moved to the path from another location. This requirement is because this item might be an orphan item if the parent path is deleted; an error message appears in this case.

  Note: If an item was initially under the deleted path, even it was moved to another location in another project using the move item process; this item is deleted. This behavior is because in the Administrator repository editor, the item is still under this path.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Repositories tab of the Administrator application.
2. Right-click the item path you want to delete, and select Delete from the shortcut menu.

   A confirmation dialog appears.

3. Click Yes.

   The item path is deleted.
