How can we delete a Defect list from MyGeotab if a defect was used in inspections?

We ran some test so created defect list for asset inspections.

 

I understand that after a defect list is used on inspections, it cannot be deleted:

 

  • How much time do we have to wait for deleting defect list used on inspections?
  • How could be defect list deleted without waiting for that time? Is it possible by MyAdmin ticket?

 

Thanks!

You will just need to purge the data now and wait for the purge to happen and the inspection will be removed. Then you will be able to remove the defect list.

Hey @Carrillo-1073​ ,

 

Thank you for asking this question in our community. This has recently come up internally as well. You can delete a defect list you just have to wait until no completed inspections are using it. So you will need to wait to purge the old inspections and then you can delete the list. You can move the list to a group that no one uses in the meantime so no new inspections use it in the future. I didnt find any other ways to do it other than that.

 

Let me know if you have any additional questions about this. I am happy to help.

 

Have a good one!

Defect list we need to delete just has 1 Inspection log and this message show up when try to remove it:

Defect list 

Checking inspection log listed, it is marked as repaird/safe and asigned to empty group

am I skipping something, @EishiFUN​?

Nice!

 

So, last questions to understand MyGeotab purge

 

I see 3 Months is minimum time for keeping Asset Inspection data;

  • Does that mean that only logs older than retain period will be purged?
  • i.e: If last asset inspection was created yesterday, defect list could be deleted after 3 months?

Yes that is correct you will just need to set it and wait the three months and the inspection should be deleted. Then you can delete the list. Just try not to let anyone use it in the meantime so you dont get another one added and have to wait longer.
