Delete asset placeholder(s)

This page describes how to delete asset placeholders in your organization. 

As an alternative, you can use the following options to create, update and delete objects in AdaptiveWork:

  • Business rules (Workflow, Scheduled Workflow, Custom Actions) in the Configuration of your organization.
  • Data loader functionality by uploading Excel (xls, xlsx) or csv files. The Data Loader uses API calls for its functionality and therefore adheres to the API governance and specifications defined by AdaptiveWork. 
  • The REST API Data Service supporting the basic CRUD operations.

Who can do this? 

Your organization's Admin can define whether your Profile has access to this module and if you can add or delete items. Profile configuration for the entity will define related items, fields, actions and other layouts that Users will access to.
  1. Go to the Asset Placeholders module.
  2. Select one or more asset placeholders from the List.
  3. From the Common ribbon , click Delete.
  4. ​A message prompts to confirm the action. Click OK to confirm the action.
  5. The asset placeholders are deleted and their state set to Inactive. If multiple assets are selected, a separate confirmation message appears for each one.

    Deleting asset placeholders from AdaptiveWork removes the items from the pool of available resources, maintains all assignments, yet displays the deleted asset placeholders' name with ‘strikethrough’ everywhere it appears in AdaptiveWork.
