How to do mass deletion of BODS Jobs

Hello

I have a requirement to delete 25 Jobs and its corresponding Dataflow, workflows and variables. I have searched the forum and did not find much information

What should be the sequence of deleting the objects - My guess is I should first delete the parent and then do the deletion of child objects, so it will job, workflow and dataflow. how can I achieve this via a script. Our back end is oracle. What will happen to variables.

Poonam

You have the right idea. Start at the top and work your way down.

The AL_ENGINE command line utility could be use to script this. Run AL_ENGINE without any parameters and it will give you a list of all the available parameters.

An alternative would be to export the jobs you want to an ATL, recreate the repository, then import the ATL back in.
