How to delete data from configuration package

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 25

I am working on a configuration package for sales invoices. Is there a way to delete the database data after the package was applied? I deleted the imported invoices from the Sales Invoices screen, but the data is still showing in the config package.

I have the same question (0)

    Yeah, I saw this... I think, this is more to help delete data from other tables, like Sales Invoices. I meant the actual config package table. One suggestion in this article is still applicable - to export the package, delete all the lines but one, and import it again. However, it leaves that one line in the package. I wanted to see if it is possible to delete all lines from the package, not the database.

    If the package is successfully applied, the number of lines in the package goes to zero. However, if there are still unresolved errors, I still cannot see how to delete all the package lines.

    Ok, Can you please attach a screenshot of the records you are referring ? so after applying the package you want to delete all the unapplied records or records which are errored ?

    Hello Masha, 

    Please check if the following steps can help you achieve what you need:

    1 - In Configuration Package lines click in " No. of Package Records" field:

    2 - Conf. Package Records page will be open - here you can select the lines and delete them:

    After this, the package records won't be available anymore:

    Hope it can help you.

    Excellent - thank you Maria Chambel I needed this also.  Is there a way of not bringing the data records with you at all when you export the config package?
