To delete Do this
A master record Make sure that the record you want to delete is active (use navigation script steps),
and then use Delete Record/Request. If the current layout contains a portal
, use Exit
Record/Request to make sure that no related record
is selected, then use Delete
Record/Request.
A related record Use the Delete Portal Row script step on page 70. If Delete Record/Request
executes when a related field
in a portal is selected, the user sees a dialog box that
asks whether the master record or related record
should be deleted. (Note that Allow
deletion of portal records must also be selected in the Portal Setup dialog box to
enable deletion of related records.)
A find request Make sure that the find request you want to delete is active (use navigation script
steps), and then use Delete Record/Request.
