Delete a translation file from an item version

Upchain enables you to delete translation files from any item version regardless of its status. If the item has multiple file versions you may choose to delete the latest version or all versions.

The selected files are permanently deleted from the tenant. This means that you may subsequently upload a translation file into Upchain with the same name as the file that was deleted depending on which translation was deleted.

You may choose to do this if the translation was uploaded incorrectly or the translation is unnecessary.

Requirements

To be able to delete a translation file from an item, the following must be true:

• You must be logged in as a Tenant Administrator. The Tenant Admin role must be your primary role.
• The item version must not be locked in any way.
• The item version must not have been included in any business processes, such as an investigation request or change request.
• The tenant property enable.configurations.solidworks must not be enabled.
