GOAL:
How to delete a field object (PFIELD) within Roundtable?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Roundtable
FIX:
It is not possible to delete an object from the repository once it has been completed (checked in in a previous version). However, you can remove the object from a Workspace. Remember that a workspace is a collection of objects that represents a configuration of your Software application. Deleting an object removes the object version from this configuration.
Now to delete the PField assignment from a table (PFile) in a workspace, you need to have an active task and sufficient privilege to update PFIELD and PFILE objects. The all process to delete a single field is described bellow:
1) In the object browse table, select the wanted table (PFILE) and check it out.
2) Choose the expand view button. When the Expand PFILE dialog box appears, then select the Fields option.
3) Select the field you want to delete.
4) Choose File/Delete Object from the menu bar. Confirm that you want to delete the field assignment
But the table cannot be checked in yet
5) Choose Workspace/Update Schema in the menu Bar, the next 3 steps take place in the Update Schema for ... dialog box
6) Choose Build
7) Choose Update
8) Choose Delete
9) Quit the Update Schema Dialog box
10) Now the PFILE object can be checked in.
