Products / Services / Projects can be deleted as long as they have not been used in any item such as a CAPA, an Event, or a Change Request.
In this case, the system will not allow you to delete it and the best solution is to disable the Product / Service / Project.
How to delete a Product/Service/Project
- Go to MANAGE > Scilife Settings.
- Go to Products / Services / Projects.
- Use the Search field to find the Product / Service / Project you wish to delete.
- Select it by clicking on the check box.
- Go to the With Selected drop-down at the bottom of the list and select Delete.

In the Products deletion form:
- Sign off electronically.
- Include a Remark on why the Product / Service / Project is to be deleted.

If the action was successful the system will give you the following notification: Deleted successfully 1 of the 1 selected Products/Services/Projects.
Why do I get the message Deleted successfully 0 of the 1 selected Products / Services / Projects?
You can only delete Products / Services / Projects that have not been used in any item: CAPA, Events, or Change Request.
If the Product / Service / Project has been included in any of these items you will get the message indicated above and it will be impossible to delete the Product / Service / Project. In this case, the best solution is to disable it instead.

It is not necessary to sign off in order to disable a Product / Service / Project.
The Product / Service / Project will now indicate Yes in the Disabled column in the Product / Service / Project list:
- Disabled Products / Services / Projects will no longer appear when you are editing an Event, CAPA, or Change Request. This means disabled Products / Services / Projects cannot be chosen and added to any of these items by mistake.
- If you wish to enable the Product / Service / Project again later on you can do so by following the same steps as described for Disabling but choosing Enable instead in the With Selected drop-down at the bottom of the list.
- Deleted Products / Services / Projects can be restored from the Deleted Items section if needed.
