Deleting External Data Sources

Although you can delete an external data source, Oracle recommends that you delete the associated measure templates before deleting the external data source.

Caution!

If you delete an external data source, all measures related to that data source are deleted from Performance Scorecard.

  To delete an external data source:

  1. Log on to Performance Scorecard as a Designer.

  2. Select Administration, and then Data Source List.

    The Data Source General page is displayed.

  3. Select the name of the external data source to be deleted.

  4. Click Delete. A confirmation message is displayed.

  5. Click Yes to confirm the deletion.

    The external data source and any related measures and results are deleted from Performance Scorecard. Also, the pointer to the external data source on the Measure Template page, and the target on the Target Setup are also removed.
