Identifying Which Batches to Clear
The example below shows records for two separate batches.
To clear all batches in the table, leave the Action column set to None.
To clear specific batches, update the Action column to Batch Action for at least one record in each batch. TAD will then identify and isolate all unique batch values based on the marked records.

Click the Batch Actions button on the ribbon, and then click the Clear Batch button.
Once the process is complete, the Result column will be updated, as shown in the image below.
The batches have been cleared, and their batch numbers have been canceled.
