"Show deleted objects" button
If you select this option, deleted objects are displayed in the left window. You can assign such
objects from the BATCH database with this setting. The default setting is to not show deleted
objects. Any object of the tree that is not assigned for a process cell update becomes a deleted
object. You can permanently remove deleted objects from the BATCH database using the
command Options > Compress data, provided these objects are not referenced or used in any
recipe or formula.
What are the consequences of an incorrect or missing assignment?
Changes in the basic engineering, for example deleting, moving, renaming objects or the use
of a stored PCS 7 project created with the "Reorganize" option can mean that the assignments
displayed and automatically made in the dialog are incorrect. In this case, you should always
check your changes in this dialog and, if necessary, cancel or correct the assignment and only
then exit the dialog with the "OK" button.
When you add or delete objects in the ES, the automatic assignments can be considered as
not critical since these objects and their assignments will be recreated or objects already
included along with their value assignments will no longer be used. Whatever the situation,
incorrect or missing assignments cause errors in the validation that is performed automatically
when the process cell is updated. During the validation, a check is made as to whether the
assignments between the database and basic engineering are consistent for all objects used
in the BATCH engineering. If there are inconsistencies between objects, this means that they
change to the "Release invalid" status. Process cell objects that become implausible during
the process cell updating are marked in the BatchCC. Depending on the project settings, edit
such process cell objects and eliminate the causes of the problem.
Note
Deleting objects in the ES
Objects deleted in the ES are not automatically removed from the database, in other words,
all deleted assignments remain in the dialog and are stored again in the database of the new
process cell.
If you want to delete these objects in the database as well as in the dialog, use the "Compress
data" command in the BATCH Control Center. The deleted ES objects are then also removed
from the process cell database.
