Deletion of referred elements in SMC are now made easier.

When you delete an element in SMC, to preserve the database integrity the server validates any references to and from that element. Those references may need to be removed to resolve the conflict before the element can be removed from the database.

There are hard references that require action and soft references that do not prevent the deletion.

Therefore, elements are differentiated as follows:
  • Hard reference are in bold characters.
  • Soft reference are in italic characters.
