Post DB refresh - delete records

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 382
Hi all,
 
After DB refresh from PROD to UAT,  we can use DMF to update the record. However if we would like to delete some records, what will be the best way to do that? I don't think it is possible through DMF.
 
Thanks,
I have the same question (0)

    Excel Add-in can't be used to delete posted transactions.  I would submit a MSFT ticket and ask them how best to delete the records.

    Hi,
    You can delete multiple records from a database table by using a delete_from statement. For more details, you can view the link below:
