Deleting a Package

Software Manager Reference
To move a package to another application
1.
If multiple databases are open, select a database in the Applications/Packages
pane.
2.
In the Applications/Packages pane, click the package to move.
3.
Select Packages menu > Attributes.
The Package Attributes dialog box appears.
4.
In Application, enter the name of the application where you want to move the
package.
5.
Click OK.
The package is moved to the application you specified. If that application already
has a package with the same name, a 1 is added to the name of the package you
move.
This does not change the application name in the installation file.
You can delete a package from the Software Manager database. However, the Software
Manager database should contain all packages used by your organization, even those
that are obsolete.
Deleting a package from the Software Manager database removes information about
that package from the database. It does not delete the original package file from any of
the share point directories, such as the Scripts directory or your default project
directory.
To delete a package, you must have the package checked out of revision control. If the
package is checked into revision control or another user has the package checked out,
you will not be able to delete the package.
Warning
Deleting a package cannot be undone.
To delete a package

etc. subdirectories), mark Delete source files from the share point directory if
they are not referenced by other packages. Source files are deleted only if they
are not referenced by any other packages in the current Software Manager
database.
