Deleting WTPart

[dgraham-4]

We have a WTPart, A, that was created inadvertently by a user and added to
the product structure of another WTPart, B.

We want to delete Part A. If we remove it from the product structure of
Part B it, of course, remains in the product structure of the earlier
iteration of Part B and therefore we will still not be able to delete it.

Any thoughts on how to delete Part A?

You're stuck with it unless you peel off all layers where it's used - and where those may be used.

For Part B, you can use the functionality Remove Older Iterations that is
in 9.x

If not on 9.x you need to Purge.
