Click this option to delete the current approval workflow that you have open on the Approvals Configuration form. You can delete an approval workflow only if approval records have not been generated with it and only if it is not currently specified as the approval workflow for an application on the General or Inventory tabs in

Deleting an approval workflow removes all traces of it in Scheduled Workflows and User Initiated Workflows Settings. Any additional actions that were added manually to an approval workflow in Scheduled Workflows or User Initiated Workflows are also removed.
