Delete Object

The Delete Object task enables the removal of a specific row from a table or a set of data displayed in the Functional View (FV) component. When executed, it interacts with the data source to delete the specified data entry, ensuring precise and efficient data management.

Common Uses

  1. Banking Applications for Data Management:
    • Customer Information Updates: Remove outdated or incorrect customer details from records.
    • Transaction Reversal: Delete a mistakenly added transaction record during manual data entry.
  2. Workflow and Data Cleanup:
    • Loan Application Corrections: Eliminate duplicate or invalid co-applicant entries in a loan processing table.
    • User Access Management: Remove unauthorized or inactive user entries from an access control list.

This task is crucial for maintaining data accuracy and ensuring that application data reflects only valid and relevant information.
