Delete documents

Administrators can delete documents in a binder, and can allow group leaders and group members to delete documents. For information about how to grant access to administrative tasks, see Grant administrative access.

Caution: Because deleting documents can affect other areas of the application (for example, mines, cubes, and Review Setup), note that deleting documents is irreversible.

With permission to delete documents, you can do the following tasks:

Delete documents in a binder.

Delete documents to which you have access.

Delete documents from the case and optionally delete all related files from the network.

To delete documents from a binder:

On the Case Home page, under Manage Documents, click Deletions.

To add a delete documents job, click Add.

Type a Name for the job.

Type an optional Description for the job.

Select a Binder from the list.

Optionally, select the Delete all related files from the network check box.

Select the Documents will be permanently deleted check box in the warning message to confirm the deletion.

Note: Documents may be excluded from the deletion process if they are included in a Locked Production or a Population. To identify these documents, on the Manage Documents > Deletions > Properties page or the Delete documents page, click the number links for Locked in a production or Included in a population. The documents appear in a search result list.

To submit the delete documents job, click Save.
