Deleting an asset or asset account tag

A tag can be assigned to multiple object types. That is, you can have the same tag assigned to assets and asset accounts including directory accounts. When deleted, all references to a tag will be removed, no matter how it was assigned (dynamically or manually).

1. Navigate to Administrative Tools | Settings | Asset Management | Tags.
2. Select the tag to be deleted.
3. Click the toolbar button.
4. On the Remove Selected confirmation dialog, click Yes.
