About this task

Deleting a task type inbox entry in the Navigate tab of IBM My webMethods Server is necessary in those instances when you change the task type root label name in IBM webMethods Designer and publish the renamed task type to IBM My webMethods Server. You must then manually delete the previous task type inbox entry in the Navigate tab of IBM My webMethods Server. For more information about changing the task type root label in Designer, see IBM webMethods Designer Online Help.

Important: Do not delete the previous task inbox entry until after you have published the renamed task type to IBM My webMethods Server. If there are currently running task instances displayed on the task type inbox entry you want to delete, be sure you first rename the task type in Designer and publish the renamed task type to IBM My webMethods Server; alternatively, you can delete the running tasks as described in Deleting a Task Type from My webMethods Server.
