Removing a Component from a Flow Chart (Financial Management, Planning, and Essbase Block Storage Application Users Only)

Removing a condition, member range, data range, or fixed loop component from a business rule or template's flow chart deletes the component. These components cannot be shared, so they exist in only one business rule or template.

Removing formula or script components from a flow chart may or may not delete the component. If the formula or script component is not shared, when you remove the component, it is deleted. If the formula or script component is shared, it is only deleted from the business rule or template from which you remove it.

  To remove a component from a flow chart:

  1. In the System View, expand the Financial Management, Planning, or Essbase application type, the application, the calculation type (for Financial Management), the plan type (for Planning), or the database (for Essbase), and Rules or Templates, depending on whether you want to remove a component from a business rule or template.

  2. Right-click the business rule or template, and select Open.

  3. In the flow chart of the Rule Designer or Template Designer, right-click the component you want to remove, and select Remove.

  4. Select File, Save.
