Optim™ performs a cascading delete/update check when you save an Access Definition or execute a process. If a cascading delete or update might affect a table that is not explicitly referenced in an Access Definition or a process, the Cascading Delete/Update Confirmation dialog is displayed.

The Cascading Delete/Update Confirmation dialog lists the names of all tables for which rows might be deleted or updated because of deletes or updates to the parent table. This dialog is provided for information only and cannot be modified.
When selected, the In Scope box indicates that a table is explicitly included in the Access Definition or process. When cleared, it indicates that a table is not explicitly included in the Access Definition or process.
Delete Rule indicates the rule for deleting from the child table when a row in the parent table is deleted or updated.
Table Name identifies the table that is affected by the delete or update of parent rows.
Select OK to continue saving the Access Definition or executing the process. Select Cancel to end the process.
