How to delete GIS objects that were created in Map Manager for Spatial use

How To


Summary

Re-creating or straight-up deleting GIS objects can be something necessary for multiple reasons. It can go all the way from a simple need to use another nomenclature (so it would be good to delete the old one) to adding a whole new series of fields to the feature on the GIS side (so deleting and re-creating would be necessary to import all the needed fields).

When a GIS object is created, multiple components are generated along with it in Maximo so that Spatial can be integrated with ArcGIS Server. It's important to know that trying to delete these objects by wiping their sub-components individually (such as removing, one by one, their end points, non-persistent tables, relationships, etc) is not the right way to do it, leaving the possibility of data integrity issues.
