Delete a Watch Event

CA APM lets you delete a watch event that you do not need. For example, when you do not want to be notified about a change to the Lifecycle Status field for an asset, you can delete the associated watch event. If your administrator has granted you the correct permissions, you can complete this task.

Note: Any pending notifications from the workflow provider (for example, CA Process Automation) about the event are sent before the event is deleted. When you delete an event, all historical information about the event is deleted. We recommend that instead of deleting the event, you make the event inactive. That way, if you need the event in the future, you do not have to redefine it.

To delete a watch event

1. Click the tab and optional subtab for the event definition that you want to configure.
2. On the left, click CONFIGURE: ON.

   The configuration of the event is enabled.

3. In the Configuration Information area of the page, select an existing global or local configuration.

   Important! Global configuration changes affect all users, regardless of their role. Local configuration changes only affect users in the roles assigned to the selected configuration.

4. Next to the field, click the Event Configuration icon.

   The Events page for the selected field appears.

5. Click the Mark for Deletion icon next to the watch event that you want to delete.
6. Click Save.
7. Click CONFIGURE: OFF.

   The configuration of the watch event is complete.
