Unable to delete attributes, after it has been used, but deactivated on ALL categories.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 15

Hi there,

I've created a category hierarchy and attached it to the role 'procurement category'

Created some attibutes and attached those (via procurement and sourcing) to the newly created category hierarchy.

Also linked some items to this category.

This results in the item having the attributes I've assigned. Fully as expected.

However if I remove a used attribute from the category hierarchy, I'm not able to delete the attribute itself from the system.

The system tells me, the attribute is still in use, which is not visible in the UI. (I can see the connection in the tables, though)

What is the proper way to delete obsolete attributes from the system ?

Thanks in advance for your respons,

Regards,

William van de Haterd

    Hi,

    What is all error information?

    Please check out if the attribute has been removed from all reference categories.

    If no, please removed it.

    If this error is still thrown, you need to contact technical department for help.
