Delete a task from a procedure
This segment of the guide explains how to remove a task from a procedure. Deleting the task is only possible when the procedure has not been Validated & Confirmed (the Validated & Confirmed column is unchecked). In addition, the task cannot be deleted if actions and instructions are associated with the procedure. To delete a task, you must unlink the results, automated actions and instructions from the procedure to be deleted.
A task cannot be deleted when called up by the results of another task.
