    I see some delete button (rubbish bin) to delete inspection form.

    Of course, trough DB it is possible to delete or even adjust them (not best approach, but have done).

    Maybe You mean Inspection result?

    It seems as though you can only delete an inspection form that is in a Draft status - there must be some restrictions in the code that prevent the form from being deleted as soon as it has become Active - so even when a form has been revised or is set to Inactive you still cannot delete the form. I think this should be raised as an enhancement request as there will quite a bit of validation required for this to check for this form being assigned on Job Plans or Work Orders etc as these would need to be removed before any deletion would be allowed. Also what would happen if an historical work order had used this form you would still need the Inspection Form Result to be visible for old forms that may now have been deleted.

    The issue is that when you create an inspection result it references the form and form revision, so there is no way to delete the form or revision without breaking the referential integrity of the inspection results.  Of course you can delete this at the database level and delete the results as well, but that is probably not a good option in most cases
