    Deleting Resource Types

    Question, I'm cleaning up a few obsolete resource types, most were removed successfully. However there are a couple which I cannot seem to delete. When I attempt to delete them the word "(Deleted)" is appended to the resource type name. If I try to delete the same one again it results in resource-type (Deleted) {Deleted)" ect... There are no members associated to these resource types.

     Possibly something to do with archive records? What am I missing?

     Thanks

     You're not missing anything.  I keep on forgetting to look into this and see what is giong on and just haven't done so yet.  Without asking around our office, it could be part of our indexing process that will clear this up which happens at 7am and 7pm each day PST.  Has it been like that for more than one day?

    For performance reasons there are some items that won't change until after the index process runs - things like auto health, deleting a workspace type, search index and maybe this one you mention.

    I will try to find out and post up.

    Thanks.. I have another resource housekeeping question. Is there a way to delete Inactive External Resrouces from the list?

    Sure. The easiest way is to go to the Admin Zone and edit the resource type. When you view the member list, you can wuickly remove resources.

    Re: Deleting Resource Types

    Admin zone by resource type works for 'Active' external resources but there is no remove option for 'Inactive' external resources.

    What I'm trying to do is import a large list of new resources, some of which exist but are inactive. When I attempt to import the records they are rejected as duplicate users. Normally that would be ok except the import file contains significantly more information which is intended to replace the existing test data.
