Provide bulk delete feature to System Admins
Remember Client/Server's "Delete Table" button that allowed you to delete all records in a table that matched the current restriction? It would be very useful to have some way to bulk delete records in current Archibus environments. This will need to be very limited to admins only, but the need is there, especially in hosted environments where administrators may not have full access to backend tools.

Currently there are 2 options to bulk delete records:
- In Smart Client, open a view, apply a restriction and then select (CTRL+A) the return records and delete them (DELETE key on keyboard). The wrinkle here is that if you have more than one page of records, it only deletes one page worth of records at a time.
- The other option, as a System Administrator navigate to Run Database Update Wizard, select the option to Run Script from Local File. In the Script file box, type in the DELETE statement and then click Run. This will result in deleting the desired records.Please let me know your opinion.
