Siebel Enterprise Integration Manager Administration Guide > Deleting Data > EIM Delete Process >

Deletion Methods Supported

EIM uses a combination of EIM table row contents and configuration file parameter values to determine the method for selecting rows to be deleted. The following methods are supported:

• Delete rows in a Siebel base table with user key values specified in the corresponding EIM table.
• Delete rows in the base table where the contents of a named column match those specified by a where clause expression in the configuration file.
• Delete all rows in the base table regardless of EIM table row contents or configuration file where clause expressions.

  CAUTION:  Do not use EIM to delete organizations. Using EIM to delete data from the Products base tables is also not recommended and can lead to inadvertent data integrity loss.
