Recycle Bin
Folders, registers, and documents which you delete are moved to your recycle bin.
You can open the recycle bin via View ribbon tab > Areas >
Recycle bin.
To access the recycle bin, you need the system role (33) Client: Show personal recycle bin. Access rights and system roles are assigned by your administrator.

Objects from other users’ recycle bins can also be restored and deleted using the system role (40) Client: Delete objects from recycle bin. Select the user whose recycle bin you want to view. |

Delete permanently
To delete items from the recycle bin, you need the system role (40) Client: Delete objects from recycle bin. Access rights and system roles are assigned by your administrator. An object that was deleted from the recycle bin will be permanently deleted. You will always be shown a security confirmation dialog. Folders and registers can only be deleted along with their entire content. You will receive the corresponding security information. |
Restoring objects can lead to inconsistencies in the archiving system, for example, if new objects contain the same index data in key fields as a deleted object. If this is the case, you will be shown the corresponding message.
Documents from variant administration will be placed in the filing tray individually. Variant administration cannot be restored.
