Deletion of a record is not a common exercise for many users. The scenario starts by searching for the record to delete. When that record is found and selected (see earlier topics), the user selects the Delete action from the row-level menu or from the Grid Actions menu. Some records cannot be deleted if already used in other areas of the application. Others cannot be deleted without first starting with the deletion of child records on another page. For example, an Activity code cannot be deleted if any Sub Activity codes have been defined for it. In that case, the sub codes (children) must be deleted first before the primary code (parent).
Note: The Delete action is only activated when the records are selected and the application is ready to perform the Delete action. The number of records selected determines the time it takes until the Delete action is activated.
