Removing Thresholds from a Pattern and Dataset

When you remove a threshold from a pattern or dataset, the Threshold Manager replaces each occurrence of the threshold in the pattern with the current value of the threshold in the base threshold set.

A record is added to the threshold history table for the base version of the threshold. This sets the deactivation timestamp to the current date, the deactivation identifier to the current user and adds the deactivation comment.

You can remove a threshold from a pattern or dataset, which disassociates a threshold from a pattern or dataset. You can remove a threshold from a dataset or pattern whenever needed.

To remove a threshold from a pattern or dataset, follow these steps:

Note:

You can remove a threshold only if the scenario is in EXP mode.

1. Click the Threshold Uses tab in the Threshold Manager.
2. Select the threshold you want to remove.
3. In the Current Uses of Thresholds area, do one of the following:
   • Select the pattern that contains the threshold you want to remove and click Remove from Pattern.
   • Select the dataset that contains the threshold you want to remove and click Remove from DataSet.
   The Warning dialog box displays.

4. Click OK to confirm that you want to remove the threshold from the selected pattern or dataset.
   The pattern or dataset is removed from the list.
5. Click Save to confirm the removal of the pattern or dataset. The Threshold Manager dialog box closes.
   If you do not want to remove the selected threshold from the pattern or dataset you selected, click CANCEL.

   If the pattern or dataset from which you are removing the threshold is currently open in another editor, you must exit the scenario or dataset editor without saving your changes when you return to the editor.
