Deleting Data in CAMS

This article explains how to delete individual records or bulk data within CAMS. Deleting data is a sensitive action, so please review all selections carefully before confirming any deletions.

For Admins or Editors

Deleting individual records

Note: This function is not available when using CAMS on mobile for data collection.

  1. Locate the record

    • Navigate to the relevant module (for example, Building Component > Edit Data).

    • Use the search or filter tools to find the record you want to delete.

  2. Select and delete

    • Click the delete icon next to the record.

    • Confirm the deletion when prompted.

  3. Verify deletion

    • Make sure the record no longer appears in the list.

    • Refresh the page if needed.

Important Notes

    Always double-check your selection before confirming any deletion. Deleted records cannot be recovered.

  • Hierarchy impact
    Deleting records at lower levels may affect related data at higher levels. Review your filters and selection carefully.
