Deleting a Product Class

You cannot delete a product class record. If you no longer want to use the product class, you can deactivate all versions rather than deleting the product class.

Before doing this, verify that the product class is not used for defining any active products.

If you have a large number of inactive versions for a given product class, you can delete the versions using the CleanupSingleObject method of the ISS Authoring Import Export Service. For more information, see Siebel Order Management Guide.

To expire or deactivate a product class

1. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Product Classes view.
2. In the Product Classes list, select and lock the desired product class.
3. In the Versions view, deselect the Active checkbox for the Work Space version.
4. Release the Work Space version.
