Deleting a Child Object on the EDM

If a child object is entered incorrectly or becomes obsolete, you can delete the object from the affected system record. Child objects can only be deleted from the SBR if they were added directly to the SBR. Deleting a child object cannot be undone.

ProcedureTo Delete a Child Object

  1. Using one of the search methods described in Searching for Object Profiles on the EDM, display the object profile you want to modify on the View/Edit page.

  2. Under the affected system record in the EUID tree in the left portion of the View/Edit page, select the child object you want to remove.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • If the child object is in a system record, click Remove child_type (where child_type is the type of child object you are removing).

  4. If the child object is in the SBR, deselect the overwrite check box for each field in the child object.


    Note –

    This can only be done if the child object was added directly to the SBR.


  5. Click Commit.

    The page refreshes, and the SBR is recalculated based on the new information.
