If you're working with an existing template that already has attribute columns, you won't be able to delete them directly. However, you can delete an attribute column before you leave the add/edit page. Here’s what you can do to delete an attribute column: 

  1. Navigate Maintenance > Template Setup. The Template List page appears.
  2. Select the scenario.
  3. Access the Add/Edit Template page, and go to the Template Columns tab.
  4. To delete the attribute column you've added, select the recently added attribute column you want to remove and click the remove icon associated with it.

    Note:
    You won't be able to delete it if you leave the Add/Edit Template page. Therefore, ensure that you complete the deletion process while you are still on the Add/Edit Template page.
  5. Click Save to save your changes.
