Deleting an Element Item Group Entry

To delete an {Element} Group entry:

1. Click on Element Items… in the Process Management tab.

   A drop-down menu appears that contains the elements that you have previously defined.

   

   Note: The element items on your screen may be different from the element items that appear in the above figure, since these are all user-defined elements.

   
   

2. Click on an element item in the drop-down menu to open the Manage {Element} screen. For example, click on Client to open the Manage Client screen.

   Note: Since the element items are user-defined, each organization may have its own element items. Therefore, in these pages, we have referred to the element item as “{Element}”. Replace this with the name of the element that you click on. For example, if you click on “Client”, the Manage Client screen will appear, whereas if you click on “Project”, the Manage Project screen will be displayed.

   

   Note: Since the element items are user-defined, each organization may have its own element items. Bear in mind that since these are all user-defined elements, the items on your screen may be different from the items that appear in the figures on these pages. As an example, in these pages we will see how to manage (add/edit/delete) Client entries. Though the screens may be different, the steps to be followed will be the same for any item under the Element Items… button.

   
   

3. Select an {Element} Group entry from the list in the {Element} Groups panel and click the Delete button.

   Office Timesheets will ask whether you really want to delete the {Element} Group entry.

   

4. Click OK to delete the {Element} Group entry.

   OR

   Click Cancel if you do not wish to delete the {Element} Group entry.

   Note: You cannot delete a group that has some entries assigned to it. If you try to delete such a group, Office Timesheets will display the following message— To delete such a group, you will first have to remove the entries from the group. (See Viewing or Making Changes to an Element Item Group entry for more details on how to remove an entry from a group.)
