 Can you ever delete a Revised Job Plan? Is it wise to do so?

Hello all,

When trying to clean up the system I am coming across revised Job Plans.  I have made the most recent revision INACTIVE but I want to actually delete the Job Plans that are not used anymore to clean up the system.  Is there a way to do this?  Or is it best not to ever delete and they just have to remain there?

(I know that for audit purposes when printing an old Work Order the Job Plan would probably need to be left ACTIVE for a year, but could it be gotten rid of after that?)

Thank you in advance.

For the sake of referential integrity; for that day when you need to migrate data; for that day when someone asks you for some obscure historical data; for that day when you have to produce something for an auditor. . .rule of thumb, if you "used" it (referred to it on a Work Order, for example), don't delete it.
