PM Delete

The PM Delete Wizard allows you to remove PMs from the TMS database if they represent duplicate or incorrect records. Typically, the PM Delete Wizard is used to:

• Remove duplicate PMs entered by two employees

• Remove PMs entered during training or demonstration

• Remove PMs entered for the wrong asset

If you have the medTester Interface configured to generate PMs, the test remains in the MUP table if the associated PM is not in the TMS database.

To use the PM Delete Wizard, follow these steps:

1. From the Tools menu, select Data Maintenance > Schedules > PM Delete.

   The PM Delete Wizard window opens.

2. Click Next.

   The PM Schedule Query page opens allowing you to select the PMs that you want to delete.

3. Specify the search criteria.

4. Click Execute.

   The results of your query are displayed.

5. Select or clear check boxes to select the PMs to delete.

6. Click Next.

   TMS verifies that the selected PMS can be deleted. If they cannot be deleted, TMS displays a message indicating why the selected PMs cannot be deleted. If they can be deleted, TMS displays a warning message indicating that the PMs will be permanently deleted.

7. Click Delete.

   A message displays indicating that the PM deletion was successful.

8. Click Close to exit the PM Delete Wizard or click Start Again to start the PM Delete Wizard again.
