Deleting a baseline from DOORS

hi,
i'm not able to delete a baseline for a module. I tried to follow the procedure given in the DOORS help file, but i'm getting an error as "This database is configured to prevent deletion of module baselines. Please contact your Adminstrator to have baseline deletion enabled". But i'm not able to do that in the Administrator login also. Please check for the attached image for the error message and the login details.

Hi,

You need to enable database deletion first:
As Administrator, with Database View selected, select the database icon then "properties".

At the bottom of the General tab, you have an option called "Baseline Deletion -- Allow deletion of module baselines"

Just tick the box.
But be aware that deleting a baseline is not undoing it:
  • History of any operation between this baseline and the previous one will be lost
  • Corresponding ID (Major.Minor Prefix) will still be registered and reserved.
