Clearing suspect links

You can clear individual suspect links, or all the suspect links in a module. If changes have been made to both the source and target objects of a link, clearing the suspect link at the source object also clears it at the target object.

Before you begin

The first time suspect links are cleared, attributes are created in the link module, so you must have Create access to the link module. Once these attributes have been created, any user who is clearing suspect links that use the link module must have modify access to the link module.
You must have modify access to both the source and target modules of the suspect link.
Note: You cannot clear suspect links in a module baseline.

About this task

You can clear all the suspect links in the module by clicking Analysis > Suspect Links > Clear All. You can select whether to clear all suspect in-links, all suspect out-links, or all suspect links regardless of the link direction. The following procedure describes how to clear individual suspect links.
