Delete Member Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to:

  • Confirm the deletion of a member.

  • Select the disposition of its descendants.

Caution  Clicking OK deletes the selected member. If you select Delete its descendants, clicking OK also deletes the member's descendants. Rows for these members are deleted from the dimension table. These deletions cannot be undone after you save dimension writeback changes.

This dialog box appears when you delete a member in the dimension members pane of Dimension Editor or Dimension Browser.

The following options are available only if the selected member has descendants.
