Warning: This operation is permanent! When you delete a branch, ALL nodes within the branch (descendents) are also deleted. Consider Unlinking it instead.
Follow these steps to delete one or more hierarchy components:
1.Highlight the node you want to delete from the hierarchy.
2.Click the Delete Branch button on the Workbench toolbar. Alternatively, you can select Node
Delete from the Main Menu.
3.In the "Confirm Delete" window, click the "Yes" or "Yes to All" button.
Confirm Delete
What happens when you click the "Yes" button?
VISION will check each node in the branch to see if it shared. If the node is NOT shared, it will be deleted. If the node IS shared, the node will be unlinked for the current position only. Consider the following example:
Example
In the branch illustrated below, let's say you that want to delete this entire branch. To delete the branch, you highlight "2. Perform a pre-start check" and select Node Delete from the Main Menu. In the "Confirm Delete" window you click the "Yes" button. For this example, let's also assume that node "2.1 Check instruments" is shared outside of the branch you are deleting.
When VISION is finished deleting the branch of "2. Perform a pre-start check", all records in the branch will be permanently deleted from the database except "2.1 Check instruments" and its two children.
2.1. Perform a pre-start check
2.1.1. Check instruments
2.1.1.1. Check hydraulics
2.1.1.2. Check electrical
2.1.2. Check pump pressures
2.1.2.1. Check priming pump
2.1.2.2. Check feed pump
