Delete a field value

Only field values you have defined for custom fields can be deleted.

  1. In the left navigation pane, click the Settings icon (Settings icon).
  2. In the Configure System section, click Manage Topic Workflow Configurations.
  3. Click the configuration's Row Action menu (Row Action menu icon), and then click Edit.
  4. Click the Fields card.
  5. Click the field's Row Action menu (Row Action menu icon), and then click Define Values.
  6. Click the field value's Row Action menu (Row Action menu icon), and then click Delete.
    If you attempt to delete a field value that is referenced in existing topic templates, the application prompts you to first remove the field value from the topic templates or action types.
  7. Click OK.
    If the field value isn't in an existing topic template, Oracle Empirica Signal deletes the field value. If not, no change is made to the Define Valid Field Values page.

Note:

If you delete or change a value that is already in use in a topic, the original value remains in any topics that have used that value; however, the value is no longer available for selection in that, or any other, topic.
