Setting the Deletion Flag 

Use

Choose this function if you want to delete an installed base that is no longer required by the system. For example, you can use this function if service is no longer offered for the installed base and it is no longer taken into account in evaluations or statistics.

Features

Setting the deletion flag means that the installed base receives an additional system status and you can no longer maintain it.

The deletion flag can be removed again at any time, providing that archiving of the installed bases has not yet started.

The installed base is transferred to an external archiving medium during the next archiving procedure and is subsequently deleted.

Activities

To set the deletion indicator, in change mode in screen area General Data, choose Edit Status and set the indicator to Deletion.

Example

An elevator at the customer site is replaced with a more modern one. Services for the old elevator have been discontinued. In addition, it is no longer required for evaluations or statistics.
