Inactivating Nodes

You can inactivate leaf nodes or limb nodes that have no active children.

The Inactivate and InactiveChanges system preferences control which users can inactivate a node and make changes to inactive nodes.

To inactivate a node:

1. From Browse, select a version.
2. Select a hierarchy.
3. From Hierarchies, select Open.

   The top node of the hierarchy is displayed in a node tree.

4. Select a node.
5. From Nodes, select Inactivate.

   Note:

   If the UseMerge system preference is enabled, you can select Inactivate & Merge, then select a node to use in place of the inactivated node.

6. Optional: Enter a Domain Inactive Date for the node and click OK.

   When the version tree refreshes, the node is grayed out and displays an inactive status icon .
