    Please note that:

    1. Users may preview all the resources in the package by using ISPF option 3.2 (Package, list resources).
    Leave the Scheme blank to view ALL resources. Set a Scheme value to see resources at Source Configs or scroll right at the Target Configs.
    The resources may be cleared selectively, or use command REM * (remove all) to prefill Actions to delete all the resources from the package.

    2. Same applies to commands via ISPF option 3.3 (Package, list commands).
    However for commands, both Source and Target Config commands are shown when Scheme is specified.
    Use the DEL * (delete all) command to prefill Actions to delete all commands.



    The other option:

    What may be better is to do something like this:
    1. Add a new Remove_From_Source option to the Scheme path.
    If activated, any resources/commands at the Source Config are automatically removed (deleted) from the Package once successfully MIGRATE’d.
    This effectively cleans up the package as it is promoted up the hierarchy, without human intervention to do the purging.
    Conceptually, this is bit like Delete_From_Source, but it does not delete the CSD records, only the association to the Package.

    I think the above would suit more customers. Please raise another RFE if this is what you would like.
