Go to the master parts module. - Click on the export icon to download the master parts list as an Excel file. 2. **Identify Parts to Delete**: - Open the downloaded Excel file. - Identify the parts to delete and keep only the part numbers. - Add a new column named "delete" and mark the parts to delete with "yes" or "true". 3. **Save File**: - Save the Excel file with a name that identifies the master parts cleanup. 4. **Import Data into EBIS**: - Access EBIS and go to the configuration screen. - Navigate to the import data module. - Select "master parts" and choose "update existing records only". - Upload the cleaned-up Excel file with the marked parts for deletion. 5. **Confirm Import Mapping**: - Verify the mapping of the part number and the delete column. 6. **Initiate Import Action:** - Click on import, confirm the action, and let EBUS process the deletion. - If import results in Errors, download error report and submit to EBIS Support. 7. **Verification**: - Check the system to ensure that the deleted parts are no longer present. ### Cautionary Notes - Ensure that you have the correct permissions and access level to perform this operation. - Double-check the parts marked for deletion before proceeding with the import. ### Tips for Efficiency - Keep the Excel file organized with only the necessary information to streamline the deletion process. - Regularly spot-check the system to confirm that the deleted parts have been successfully removed. ### Link to Loom [https://loom.com/share/a3ddce9d3abf4c179bcd8aee9c28a5c2?src=composer](https://loom.com/share/a3ddce9d3abf4c179bcd8aee9c28a5c2?src=composer) -
