TPF Toolkit RSE ? Trash or Recycle Bin

TPFUG_Req_Number: V07011F
Contact Originator Id: kirtisri.samarasuriya@sabre-holdings.com
Abstract: TPF Toolkit should save deleted objects in a recycle/trash folder for later purge or restore.
Description: It's common for users to mistakenly delete objects which may represent significant work. Also, it may not be easy to quickly restore from backups on the host and this is not an option for changes made in-between backups.
Solution Considerations: Deleted objects should be saved locally or on host in a separate folder and easily selected for restore. Items may be purged permanently by user action or by an automatic purge with a confirmation option if any items are to be purged at start or end of a TPF toolkit session. A preference page value should be available for the number of days after date of deletion each file is to be purged.

Both RSE and TPF Toolkit perspectives should support this feature to save deleted projects, files, folders, and other objects.

    IBM does not intend to do this in the foreseeable future.
