The Resource Manager provides several tools to make it easy to delete unused resources and merge duplicate resources.
To find unused resources of the selected type, choose Administration > Selection > Show Only Unused.
Once you have found the unused resources, you can decide which ones to delete.
You can return to viewing all resources of the selected type by choosing the Show All command.
You may sometimes have duplicate resources within a project (i.e., several models that all represent the identical distribution, several tasks that are identical, etc.) within a project. For example, this might happen if you have imported diagrams that all reference the same model, but the imports happened at separate times and therefore the model had to be imported again each time.
To find duplicate resources, choose Administration > Selection > Show Only Duplicates.
In the window that appears, select the properties that must match in order for the resources to be considered duplicates. For example, if you are looking for duplicate URDs, you might select to compare the model, corrective task and scheduled tasks, but not the URD name. Once you have selected the columns to compare, click OK to show the duplicate resources.
You can merge multiple resources of the same type into one resource, either automatically or manually. Note that models must be of the same category in order to be merged, and you cannot merge published models.
IMPORTANT: Merging cannot be undone, and only the information from the "target" resource (i.e., the resource that you merge the others into) will be retained.
To merge resources automatically, choose Administration > Actions > Merge All Duplicates.
This will find all sets of duplicates within the selected resource type (e.g., three identical Weibull models and 2 identical lognormal models); and for each set, it will merge the duplicates into the first instance found. After you confirm that this is what you want to do, you will be prompted to select the properties that must match in order for the resources to be considered duplicates. The process begins as soon as you select at least one column and click OK. It cannot be undone.
To merge resources manually, select the resources and choose Administration > Actions > Merge & Delete.
The window shows a list of the resources you selected to merge and allows you to choose which one will be retained (i.e., the one that the other selected resources will be merged into). After you click OK, this resource will be used in all places where the other selected resources were previously used.
