Deleting Objects

You can delete an object from the Browser, a diagram, or an object list. You can choose to

Delete the object (including any sub-objects) from the model. For example, when you delete a table from a PDM, you delete its columns, keys, triggers and indexes.
Delete the symbol from the diagram, but keep the object in the model

If you delete an object that is connected to another object via a link object, you will also delete the link object.

Note:

If you have specified that domains and data items can be reused by multiple objects in a CDM or PDM and you delete a parent object to which they belong, these sub-objects will not be deleted with their parent. For more information, see the Data Modeling guide.
