Unnamed source templates

Post by Hanning » 12 Apr 2023 03:38

I am slowly creating source templates to suit my needs and applying them to existing generic templates. All is going well but for this error. When I go to add an existing source template to an existing source I see some unnamed source templates that I cannot delete. (see screenshot). They don't appear in the Source Template Definitions window, and I am sure that created them by mistakenly choosing Add new source from template on a fact, then realising I had chosen the wrong option and exiting.
Is there a way to tidy up the list? Its not causing any other issues that I can determine.

I am sure they will be listed in the Records Window on the Source Templates tab where you can delete records with Rec Id 22, 23 & 25.

Hi Mike
No they don't appear in the Source list, and the record numbers relate to other sources. They are Source Templates, rather than sources, yet do not appear in the Source Template list either.

Marlene, where exactly are you looking for those Source Templates?

Perhaps you are looking in the Records Window but it has no Source Templates tab.
That is because CP in their infinite wisdom have chosen to hide that tab by default.
So use Tools > Preferences > Records Window and under Record Type Display Options set them all to Always Show.
Alternatively, use the View > Other Record Lists > Source_Templates command.

If you still cannot find any <Unamed source template> records please post a screenshot of where you are looking.
