Trash: recover what was deleted

Whatever you delete goes to the Trash for 30 days. Recovery is one click; generated files on disk are never deleted.

A delete anywhere in the app asks first: "…will be moved to the Trash. It stays there 30 days before it is deleted for good." The Trash is in the main menu.

Two trees

• Shared items. Configurators, input sources, output sources, workflows and the library — the same five folders as on the Server screen. Columns Deleted by, Deleted and Remaining ("30 days left", "Deleted today").
• Order records. Records from the Log, from this computer only, with the same countdown. Deleting a record never deletes the generated files.

Buttons

• Button: Restore - What it does: puts the item back where it came from
• Button: Delete - What it does: deletes the item for good, now
• Button: Empty trash - What it does: empties everything

Deleting a captured parameter in step 1 does not go through the Trash — the parameter and its rules are gone at once and for good. The same holds for a form field.
