How to remove Shift Patterns form the Shift Pattern Manager
What is the difference between hiding and deleting?
RotaMaster will only allow information that isn't used elsewhere in the system to be deleted, if the information has been used historically but is no longer required then it must be hidden.
For example, if a Shift Pattern has been rolled out to the live rota at any point you will not be able to delete it however, the pattern can be hidden.
