Archiving, Unarchiving, and Deleting Applications

You can archive an active application when you no longer need it. For example, you may want to archive an application at the end of a period of time such as the end of the quarter or end of the year. You can also return an archived application to Active status or you can delete the application.

Considerations

  • A user who has the Owner permission on the application can change its status or delete it.

  • When you archive an application, all of the application's dimensions and their data chain objects (node types, hierarchy sets, and node sets) are also archived. The default view remains active.

  • When you return an archived application to Active status, all of the application's dimensions and their data chain objects are restored to the status that they had before the application was archived.

  • An application must first be archived before you can delete it.

  • Deleting an application permanently deletes all of its data including data chain objects and requests. This operation cannot be undone. You may want to make a migration back up before deleting an application in case you need to restore it in the future. See Backing up and Restoring Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud

  • You cannot delete a Users application if one of its node sets is referenced by a Node data type property in another application.

For more information, see Working with Data Objects and the Data Chain.
