"Hi Marco. I would like to delete a catalog from our application. Can you help me with it?"
"Sure, Ajay! From the UI you can delete an entire catalog subscription so the items no longer appear in the catalog search. You can also delete one or more versions of a catalog subscription. This is useful if you want to clear out previous versions of the catalog and might add brand new items later on.
Additionally, you can also delete individual items from the catalog directly in the UI or via an incremental load."
"Seems easy enough!"
"It is a simple procedure but you have to keep some things in mind.
If you want to delete a subscription, all the catalogs in the subscription must be deactivated. If you want to delete a version of a catalog, that version must be deactivated. When the status changes to Deactivated, all the items in the catalog or in the particular version are deactivated and no longer available for users to search or order."
Procedure: How to Delete a Catalog Version
- On the dashboard, click Manage Core Administration.
- Select Catalog Manager Catalogs.
- Click the checkbox for the catalog version you want to delete, then click Delete Versions.
