5.1.6.5 Deleting Reports and Graphics Outputs

You will not normally need to delete production reports and
graphics outputs.  Expired cycles (as defined by the Maximum
Report Retention parameter on the Reports and Graphics
Jobstream panel) are deleted when you execute the reporting
jobstream.  However, you may occasionally encounter rerun
situations that leave an invalid or partial reporting cycle
in the catalog.

You can use the D (Delete) line command to delete an entire
reporting cycle, individual reports and graphics outputs, or
the production reporting jobstream definition and ALL saved
reports and graphics outputs.  The D (Delete) line command
displays the delete confirmation menu.

-  Choose option 1 (Delete User Reporting Jobstream) to
   delete the user reporting jobstream definition.

   Note: Do NOT use this option unless you want to delete ALL
   saved outputs AND the user reporting jobstream definition.

-  Choose option 2 (Delete Saved Outputs) to delete a
   reporting cycle or individual reports and graphics
   outputs.

-  Choose option 3 (Delete Saved Outputs and MWP Cycles) to
   delete an entire reporting cycle and the associated MICF
   Web Publishing output for that cycle.

Note that both option 1 and option 3 attempt to remove MICF
Web Publishing output.

o If the output is successfully removed, the remaining output
  available from MICF Reports and Graphics will also be
  deleted.

o If the output is not successfully removed, the log file
  created during the delete operation will be displayed, and
  you will have to identify and correct the problem.
  Processing will not continue.

After correcting any problems, you can use option 1 or 3
again, or select option 2 to skip removal of the MICF Web
Publishing output and only remove the output available to
MICF Reports and Graphics.
