Recently upgraded to Next Experience. This may or may not be related to Next Experience however. My question is in a table list view the list action option has "Delete with preview" See below.
Does this allow prior to deletion of the record to preview it and then if acceptable proceed with the deletion? Thanks

Hi @David Neustadt1 ,
UI Action "Delete with preview" will create a Data Management Delete Job in the table sys_dm_delete. You can find it searching "Delete Jobs" in the context menu.
This will allow you to have a preview of the deletion process and clicking on "Preview Cascade" you can also see which are the records that will be deleted together with the deletion of the current record.
You can then choose to run the job immediately (Execute Now) or schedule it using Run At field.
Just for example, deleting a record from alm_hardware table will also delete records from cmdb_ci and fm_expens_line table (or maybe more related tables, if there are other table related to alm_hardware).
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Simone
