Deleting Objects and Clearing Forms

You can delete the following from a simulation:

• A component, from the Components Specification Selection sheet

• Blocks and streams, from the flowsheet

• Other input, such as a design specification, using the Data Browser or an Object Manager

When you delete input, all references to the deleted object (even on other forms) are automatically deleted. If this results in an inconsistent or incomplete specification, the Expert System marks the affected forms as incomplete, and the Next function takes you to any incomplete sheets.

You cannot delete:

• Sheets that do not represent objects, such as the Setup forms

• Properties Parameters (Binary or Pair) and Molecular Structure objects

However, you can clear these sheets of all existing input and restore their default values. To do this, click Clear from an Object Manager.

Using the Expert System When You Make Changes

The Aspen Plus Expert System (the Next function):

• Tells you when your specifications are inconsistent or incomplete

• Guides you through reconciling changes

If the field where you want to enter data is inactive, the Prompt for the field tells you why. To make the field active, delete any conflicting entries or options.

If you change an option or specification that makes other entries inconsistent, Aspen Plus displays a dialog box asking if you want to temporarily override the error.

Click Yes if you want to continue without correcting the inconsistency error. Then go to the affected fields and make them consistent with the new specification.

The affected forms are marked incomplete until you reconcile the specifications. The Expert System guides you to incomplete sheets.
