How do I permanently delete a workflow...?

Seems like a silly question, I know, but there is no "Delete" option except for Checked out versions of workflows. I have several inactive workflows which need to be deleted in order to clean up the list.

Go to the workflow, Open exiting workflow, click the arrow next to the workflow action wheel, chose delete and just like that the workflow is gone. But why would you want to delete the workflow? Why not just make it inactive and leave it in there?

There is no "Delete" option that I can find. I am logged in as Admin and have attached a screen capture of what options are available. I need to delete some of these workflows because they are named similar to some workflows that are currently in production. Rather than rename them and keep them, I prefer a clean, organized set of workflows.

You should have the delete option. make sure you have the following Roles:Workflow _admin Role. This will allow you to create, edit, publish or delete workflow. If you don't have that role, add it and you should be able to go back in and see the delete option.

Still not there. As I mentioned earlier, I was logged in as Admin and still didn't see a "Delete" option. My own personal account has the admin role and I've never been able to find the delete option. I added the workflow_admin role and there is STILL no Delete option so I guess I need to open an incident in HI to get this resolved.

Thanks for your time!
