Deleting access types

As an administrator, we can delete access types that are no longer needed in the organization.

We must remove all access definitions for an access type before we can delete an access type.

We cannot delete an access type if any access definitions for that access type exist.

To delete an access type in the tree structure...

1. Click Configure System > Manage Access Types to display the Manage Access Types page. The Manage Access Types page lists the default access types.

2. On the Manage Access Types page, click the icon next to the Access Types node to delete. Then, click Delete to display the Confirm page. We cannot delete an access type node that has child items or a group or role association. We must first delete the child items or the group or role association before deleting the access type.

3. On the Confirm page, click Delete to delete the access type, or click Cancel.

A message indicates that you successfully deleted an access type. The Manage Access Types page no longer displays the deleted access type in the tree structure.

Create or change access types, delete additional access types, or click Close.
