-
With the Specifications window open, on the Actions menu, select Delete Specifications.
-
In the Select Items dialog, find and select the items whose specs you want to delete.
-
If you created instrument specifications per tag case, you can delete specifications on a per-case basis. For example, if you applied three process data cases to a tag, three records appear in the data grid. The Case column values indicate whether instrument tags have tag process data cases.
-
If the tag number selection includes a master tag, the software prompts whether you want to perform or cancel the deletion of the specifications. You have an option to cancel the deletion because when you delete a master tag, the software dissociates all the other tags from the multi- tag specification to which the master tag belongs.

In the Delete Specifications dialog, select Run.
-
If the software could not delete a specification, the source item appears in the Items skipped during deletion data window. You can print out the item list, if needed. These records are not saved after you close the Delete Specifications dialog.
-
When you delete a specification, the software automatically deletes all the associated revisions as well, whether you saved them to the database, or as files. The software removes revisions that were saved as files from the Manage Spec Revisions dialog, and from the folders to which they have been saved.
Deleting a spec does not affect process data. The software only deletes the specification
document, together with the document number and associated revisions, whether you
saved them to the database, or as files. The software removes revisions that were
saved as files from the Manage Spec Revisions dialog, and from the folders to which they have been saved.
