35

36

38

When you fill in these elements you have registered the relevant meta-information for yourself and others to relate to the system in question

=== 3.2 Editing a system ===

48

49

To edit a system you simply double click on the system (or edit it via the context menu). After you have done so you can edit the system via the same pop-up as when you create a new system.

50

51

For example, you could change the Status to Done or add a Remark. Editing a system can be done without impact at any given moment as you only edit descriptive fields.

=== 3.3 Deleting a system ===

56

57

Adding a system is the starting point of your integration. Both editing and deleting a system can happen at any given moment.

58

Although editing a system has no impact regardless of the state of the system in subsequent phases of the ILM the same does not apply for deleting a system.

59

60

When a system has been transferred to Create you cannot delete the system anymore in Capture without removing it first from Create.

61

This is done to prevent situations that could be disastrous (i.e removing something that is still running on Production).

62

63

The specifics of those situations will be discussed in a separate microlearning. For now, we will keep it simple and focus on deleting a system while it is still in Capture and Design.

64

65

To delete a system in such a scenario you can simply open the context menu and press Delete system and press OK on the confirmation pop-up.

== 4. Assignment ==

The assignment is simple this time. Simply add, edit and subsequently delete a system called Microlearning.

72

After you have successfully deleted add a new system that you can use in the following assignment(s).

73

This assignment can be completed with the help of an associated Mendix project linked to the (Academy) project that you have created/used in the previous assignment.

78

* Editing system information can be done at any given time without impact on other ILM phases

79

* Deleting a system can only be done (without special steps in preparation) when the system has **not** yet been transferred to Create or has been untransferred from Create.
