Hello,

I've got a requirement wherein I need to do mass deletion of the contents of all the attributes types(selected in a specific language, for ex: "Spanish") associated with all the models and objects types in ARIS 

Can anyone guide if there is any inbuilt functionality in ARIS that can perform mass deletion or do we need to write a report for it ?Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Krishna Boddu

Hi Krishna,

 

below you'll find a step by step explanation for deleting attribute values for a large amount of objects/models by ARIS Attribute Wizard...

First of all I recommend to do a database backup before doing mass deletion ;-)

 

With ARIS Architect you can do the following steps:

- Login to your ARIS database with e.g. "spanish"

- Search on your database for all objects with well-maintained attribute e.g. "Description"

- In context of the search result you can right-click and select in submenu "Attribute Wizard..."

- At the first page ("1. Select items") of the dialog you don't need to check one of the boxes

- At the second page ("2. Select action") you can chose "Delete attributes"

- At the third and final page ("3. Select attributes") you can choose multiple attribute, their values you want to delete. The values e.g. for "Description" are only deleted in your logon language, e.g. "spanish".

Best regards,

Armin

Hello Armin, 

I am trying to clear groups (folders) names, but this method is not working for me, on the third window, when I try to select attributes, there is no option for "Name"

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Armin,

Thanks a lot for your reply. It was really helpful,along with your approach  , I got to know there is another approach - evaulate report- "Export Attribute value for translation" that generates an excel report and we can do modifications in excel and later import the excel back to ARIS with a report "Import translated attributes".

PS: DB backup is recommended here as well. 

Regards,

Krishna Boddu

... of course you have to do the steps from my last comment in ARIS Architect.
