Deleting case issues

If you want to delete a case issue, you first need to verify whether the issues is currently linked to any transcript annotations. If the issue is linked to annotations, then you must transfer the annotations to another case issue before deleting the issue you want removed from the issue list.

This process is managed by the Delete Issue Wizard, which offers you the option of moving the links to an existing issue or deleting the annotation links to the case issue you want to delete. The wizard displays how many annotations are linked to the issue.

Deleting a case issue linked to an annotation will not delete the annotation. The annotation color will then change to the selected default color.

You cannot delete a parent issue that has sub-issues. You must first move any annotation links to another issue and then delete the sub-issues.
