Hi all,
Im running a IT asset database to keep track of all Assets in the company.
Ive created a custom list with one of the options being whether the item is disposed or not and i either select yes or no. If so, Is there a way for me to have it automatically deleted after its selected to yes ?
Thanks in advance,
Nathan

Hi Nathan,
You can create sharepoint designer workflow for same. Whenever you update the item value = "Yes" then your workflow will start and delete this item from list.
Follow the below article for more information about it. (This is not exactly the same what you looking for but you can get the hint)

HI,
This can be carried out easily by using sharepoint designer workflow or event receiver.
For your case I would recommend the first one.
Create a workflow and mark the start up type as on change. Check if the property is set as yes or not and based on this delete the item.
I hope this will help you out.
Thanks, Rahul Rashu
