Restoring Items from the Recycle Bin

With many PPM applications, when you delete an item, the item is moved to the Recycle Bin. If you have the Restore Own Items from Recycle Bin permission, you can restore application items that you have moved to the Recycle Bin. Note: If the item has been in the Recycle Bin longer than the Recycle Bin Retention period (configured by your PPM Administrator), the item is automatically deleted and cannot be restored.

When you restore an item from the Recycle Bin the item is moved back into the application where it was created. For details on which application items are moved to the Recycle Bin, see Items Moved to the Recycle Bin.

Important: With certain applications (Tasks and Notifications for example) when you delete an item, the item is permanently deleted rather than moved to the Recycle Bin. If an application item is going to be permanently deleted, you are prompted with a confirmation message.

If you click Yes to delete the item, it cannot be recovered.

For details on which application items are permanently deleted, see Items Not Moved to the Recycle Bin.

To restore an item from the Recycle Bin:

Open the Recycle Bin.
Select the item you want to restore.
From the Checked Item Actions list, click Restore Item.
