Hi experts,
Could someone give me a way to mass-delete data from a list?
There are 300,000 of product data in the L_Product, and when I try to select all and delete them, "Cannot delete over 10,000 records" error appeared.
Regards,

@Tsuyoshi_Inoue1Please use Delete from List Using Selection option.
Go to Actions ->New Action->Delete from List Using Selection-> Provide the necessary info to Anaplan
1. Action Name
2. Select the List from you want to delete the list items.
3. Select using - Select the module where you have used that particular list as a dimension.
Thanks,
Miz
Simple!
Create a new module dimensioned only with the list you want to delete and create a boolean formatted line item called Delete. Set this formula to TRUE
Then go to actions and create a new delete action. Pick the list you want to delete and the line item as the line item created above
Run the action and this will truncate the whole list
Hi
You can use the action Delete from List Using Selection to do this.
You can put conditions to selectively delete the items or you can mark the line item in a module with dimension of that list as TRUE to delete all the items

Hi Misbah,
When I try to create a module with delete line item as Boolean and every list member is marked true to be deleted from list , it only delete child members in the first run and I had to run it repeatedly in order to remove the parents and parents roll up for the entire list to be cleared out. Is there any alternative where the entire list could be deleted in one instance ?
@sirams2
That is because your list (hierarchy) is not a concatenated list, you have all levels in a single list. Due to this and because you can only delete members at the lowest level, you will have to run it repeatedly or you can create multiple delete actions doing the same thing (deleting the lowest level), and put them all within a process.

This is a clever trick.
I have a list, for which , the 'Delete All' where number of records is more than 40000, is just timing out.
The action 'Delete using a Selection' based on a property field item appeared to delete only the field item in the list ( list has Parent, Node, Code and Property).
So, I am going to try out your method.

What do we call the module that carries the list that we use to delete?
Any suggestions?
System module?
SYS05 Delete x list?
Hello folks, Does anyone know how to work around the Polaris limitation of using the Formula or Ratio summary method alongside the Closing Balance within the same line item? I have a Business Unit list where the total (All BUs) must display the Corporate (1 of 20 leaf items under All BUs total) number of Unique Customers.…
Hello community, I have an issue with anaplan report (functionality). The issue I have is within couple of slides. The data in that report is scrolling into a new page. There is a hierarchy in the rows and line items and time in the columns. My problem is, the hierarchy is getting broken in the second page. One of the node…
