Sequence of Steps#

The Terminate Package wizard can be called from the Package page within the Business Data Group.

Step 1: General Data#

1. In the More button on the top ribbon, select Terminate to perform the operation. All generic/smart table rows that reference the current object will be removed and will not be recovered if the object is unterminated at a later point.

2. If the Package Content Type is different from Package or equal to Package, and Sub-Package Count is greater than zero:

   • You must provide a valid Loss Reason applicable to Terminate that is associated to the current Package Material Step.
   • If the Step defines Loss Classifications, you must supply the Loss Classifications.
   • You can specify that the Material should be terminated if it has no Sub-Materials and Primary and Secondary Quantity reach zero.
