## <a name="bkmk_delcollref"></a> Delete collection references
12+
13+
<!--9708999-->
14+

Previously, when you would delete a collection with dependent collections, you first had to delete the dependencies. The process of finding and deleting all of these collections could be difficult and time consuming. Now when you delete a collection, you can review and delete its dependent collections at the same time.
16+
17+
A new **Details** window shows more information about the relationship types, and lets you [view collection relationships](../../../../clients/manage/collections/manage-collections.md#view-collection-relationships) in a graphical chart.

There are several reasons why the site can't delete a dependent collection:
22+
23+
- Assigned to user <!-- is this AAD sync? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/core/clients/manage/collections/create-collections#bkmk_aadcollsync -->
24+
- Used by cloud attach
25+
- Use for upload to Microsoft Endpoint Manager
26+
<!-- need clarity on specifically what settings these apply to -->
27+
28+
The details window lists collections that can't be deleted with the reason why.

### Try it out!

Try to complete the tasks. Then send [Feedback](../../../../understand/product-feedback.md) with your thoughts on the feature.

1. Create multiple collections that are dependent on each other. Use relationships such as **Limiting**, **Include**, and **Exclude**. For more information, see [How to create collections in Configuration Manager](../../../../clients/manage/collections/create-collections.md).
35+
36+
1. Delete a collection that has dependent collections. For more information on how to delete a collection, see [Collection actions](../../../../clients/manage/collections/manage-collections.md#collection-actions).
37+
38+
1. In the **Delete Collection Error** window, select **Details**.
39+
40+
1. Once the relationship types finish loading, select **View Relationships** to see the graph.
41+
42+
1. If all of the dependent collections can be deleted, select **Delete all listed collections**.
43+
44+
1. Review the list of collections and any software deployments that the site will also remove. You also can **Delete each collection member from the database**.
