What can you do on this screen?

On the Unused Resource Management screen, you can view and remove resources that are not cited anywhere in LEAD. This is independent of versions, so if versions 1 and 3 of a publication are cited in initiatives and version 2 is not, then version 2 of the publication will be listed on the Unused Resource Management screen and can be deleted/removed.

Note: When it comes to intervening versions of an IETM, where a later version has a comparison file, you will get a message when you delete the IETM to remind you to check the grouping and comparison files of the other versions of the IETM to ensure they are still associated properly to each other.

 

On this screen:

•Use the Type drop-down to limit the list of resources to a specific category or sub-category, as set up on Customizations screens.

•Enter a search term in the Find: field and select Search to list all resources that contain your search term on the screen.

•Export a spreadsheet listing all unused resources regardless of the selected Type.

•View the different versions of a resource that are also unused (not cited) by clicking on the arrow in the first column.

•Select a resource and then:

oView the resource information.

oShow History to review the changes made to the consumable, including the user name and date/time of saved changes.

oRemove the resource. This will remove the selected resource(s) from LEAD after another check to ensure the selected resources are still not cited anywhere in LEAD.

You can click on the column header to sort the entries. Clicking on the column header again, will reverse the sort. Small arrows in the column header let you know which way the data is currently sorted.
