    About this task

    You can delete controls if the control objectives associated with those controls have been erroneously added. If you want to add new controls, you may want to delete existing controls.
    Note:
    If a control is associated with any other entity or entity type, then you cannot delete the control. By deleting a control, you can only remove the association of that control with the processing activity.

    2. Select and open the processing activity from which you want to delete controls.
    3. Click the Controls related list.
    4. Select the controls that you want to delete.
    5. Click Delete.
