 Deleting an Info Record

You cannot delete obsolete info records immediately. You can only flag them for subsequent deletion.

Info records earmarked for deletion in this way are not actually deleted until the archiving program is run. This is done at regular intervals by your system administrator.

You can flag an individual info record for deletion, or create a list of deletion proposals and choose the relevant records that are to be deleted from this list.
