Deleting a rule definition

You can delete a rule definition that is no longer needed. You can only delete rule definitions that are not currently being used by a metadata rule.

Perform the following steps to delete a rule definition:

1. Click Management in the left navigation menu.

   The Manage Your Environment page opens.

2. On the Metadata Rules card, click Definitions.

   The Rule Definitions tab opens.

3. Locate the name of the rule definition that you want to delete and select its check box.

4. Click Delete.

   If the rule definition you are trying to delete is attached to a metadata rule, the rule definition cannot be deleted, and you get a notification asking you to unlink the definition from all associated metadata rules before you can proceed.

The rule definition is deleted, and a confirmation message appears in the upper corner of the page.
