Removing or Deleting a Merchandising Zone
Though removing a merchandising zone makes it unavailable for visitors to your site, it does not permanently delete it. However, if you no longer need a merchandising zone you are able to permanently delete it.
Removing a Merchandising Zone
When you remove a merchandising zone the visibility end date and time is set to “now.” For details, see Visibility Dates. If you have unpublished content and you decide to remove it rather than publish it, you can choose to discard or expire the content. For more information, see Discard Content Vs Expiring Content.
