- If you are a superuser, you have two options:
- To remove the data configuration from the application, but leave it in the database so that it can later be re-imported, click Remove Reference Only.
- To delete the data configuration completely, including deleting it from the database, click Delete Permanently.
Note:
If you are not a superuser, you cannot delete the data configuration if any objects are associated with it. - If any objects reference this configuration, you can transfer queries, report
definitions, and saved lists to a compatible data configuration. From the What would you
like to do with objects that reference this configuration?
drop-down list, select a configuration.
- Any queries, report definitions, and saved lists that are not compatible with the data configuration that you select are deleted.
- To delete all queries, report definitions, and saved lists instead of transferring them, at the bottom of the list, select Delete All Referenced Objects.
- All case series, data mining runs, and report outputs based on this configuration are permanently deleted.
- Before continuing, you might wish to:
- Add the query portion of query-based case series to the Query Library (from the Case Series page).
- Make sure that the configuration is not referenced by any drug profile configurations or signal configurations, because such references are removed.
- Attach run results, case lists or case details, and report outputs to a topic.
- Click Delete.
Note:
When you delete a data configuration that is associated with an alias , the target status of the alias becomes Broken.
