Delete Target

The Delete Element command permanently removes the selected target element from the database. Prior to deletion, CORE will prompt to ensure you wish to discard the target, its attributes, parameters, relationships, and associated structures. Once deleted, the target cannot be restored.

 

 

Remove Target versus Delete Target

Users are sometimes confused as to whether they should remove a target or delete a target. If you simply want to break a relationship with an element, use the Remove Target command. If you want to completely delete the target from the database, use the Delete Target command.

 

Remember that CORE's underlying model is integrated, and from this integrated model, CORE generates a rich interconnected system definition. Function ABC on one diagram is the same as Function ABC on another diagram. If you delete Function ABC, it is deleted from both diagrams, all relationships, and from the database.
