Delete Equipment Document

 

There is an Inactive box that can be flagged to delete a document and prevent it from appearing as a dropdown option where applicable. Go to Administration > Operations > Equipment > choose Equipment record > Documents tab. Check the Inactive Button. This permanently deletes the document from the record.

 

This is helpful when options include obsolete documents that can clutter the selection process from option dropdowns.

To quickly delete all documents that are in an Equipment record, go to Administration > Operations > Equipment > click the Equipment record > Documents tab and the click the Remove All Documents button. This will flag the Inactive box for each individual document. When the inactive box is flagged, the document is permanently deleted from this record. A confirmation box will appear to make sure this is what you want to do.
