Essential Information

• KB0035852: How to Delete a Resource Commitment Record in RCAM (EPBCS Web App) is a separate article. 
• The Delete Commitment action can be run from Task 7.2A Enter Basic Resource Commitment Data – Simplified or Task 7.2B Enter Basic Resource Commitment Data – Full, but the following instructions will refer to Task 7.2A Enter Basic Resource Commitment Data-Simplified. 
• Records can only be deleted from the Base Commitment record. 
• Running the Delete Commitment action completely deletes all data stored on the Base Commitment and Transfer In Commitment records tied to the relevant Resource Commitment ID (CTID). 
• Once the Delete Commitment action is run, there is no way to recover the data.
• After a record is deleted, the Resource Commitment ID (CTID) is returned to the pool of available CTIDs to claim via Task 7.1 Activate Resource Commitment ID – SELECT SOURCE POV.
