You can delete working versions, snapshot versions and some significant versions. It is not possible to delete published significant versions.
How to delete a document
On the Project tab, select Delete document from the Actions menu next to the working version, snapshot or significant version you want to delete.
A warning message will be shown. Make sure you have selected the right document version to delete.
Click Delete.
The selected version will be deleted. If it was a working version then all associated snapshot versions will also be deleted.
Only users in the same organisation as the user who created the document version can delete it.
You cannot delete the last document in the project. You will need to separately delete the project if you wanted to get rid of the last document in it - see Deleting a project.
If you delete the only shared significant version in a project, users from the other organisation may no longer be able to see the project in their dashboard if that was the only document in the project they had access to. If they had created a working version of the significant version before it was deleted, they will still be able to see the project.
