Delete from the Summary Window

To do Data Entry and/or Submit/Approve Data Entry Forms, your IMSMANG user account must belong to a User Role that has permissions to do so. There are several different permissions e.g. Data Entry Form and Link. Contact your IMSMANG Administrator if you have questions on permissions.

The Delete Action lets you delete data that has already been approved. However, the Data Entry Forms are not physically deleted from the the database, they get status deleted and are possible to retrieve back later if needed.

1. Open the Summary window of the item that you would like to Delete.
2. Click the button.
3. The Template for Delete Data Entry Form window displays. The list of possible templates are filtered to only included templates for the current item type.

8. No other items may be linked to the item that you would like to Delete.
9. Save, Submit or Approve the Data Entry Form.
10. When the Data Entry Form is approved, the Summary window will be deleted.

The deleting Data Entry Form's Date of information must be a later date than the Data Entry Form(s) that created/updated the data since the calculation of the Summary item is based on Date of Information. When the date is earlier or the same, no delete of the Summary items occur.

When Data Entry Forms with Delete Action are imported as maXML they will not automatically be Approved so the importing organisation have full control of what is being deleted from IMSMANG .

This Action was introduced in version 6.0.
