Delete a Publisher (Local)

We have a publisher that was created manually when we were using Flexera on prem. It has NOTHING connected to it and never will.  How does one remove this local publisher?

So I'm confused. 🙂 If there are no records, what are you wanting to delete?

The term "Publisher" might refer to different things in the data model. For example

  • It might be the "Publisher" field on a license, in which case it is likely a reference to a Vendor record. You can delete Vendor records from the All Vendors page.
  • It might by the "Publisher" field on application records, in which case you probably want to edit (or delete) the application records that refer to the publisher you no longer want and update them to refer to another publisher.

There are no records associated with this publisher and there is no "vendor" with this name.

Never mind.  It's confusing to explain and not important.
