Delete an Attribute Value or Folder

Permanently remove an Attribute Value or Folder from KaiNexus.

Attribute Values can be grouped under Folders for organizational purposes. These groupings will be represented in the Attribute drop-down when filtering a List of Items or creating or editing an Item.

What happens when an Attribute Value or Folder is deleted?

• Delete Attribute Values and Folders will no longer appear as options when editing or creating Items, or when filtering a list of Items.
• Deleted Attribute Values will still appear on Items to which they have been added until the next time that Item is edited. At that point, that Attribute Value will disappear from the Item and a new selection will need to be made.

Who can delete an Attribute Value or Folder?

Anyone with the "Quality Administrators" permissions can delete Attribute Values and Folders.

People with other Administrator permissions may be able to access the Attribute Administration page, but will not be able to make changes to it.
