[Koha] Koha delete Item type

[Jonathan Druart]

Hello Decka,

Are you using the last version of the 3.20 branches (3.20.10)?
Did you try to delete all the items of the record?
Then delete the record, then the item type.

Regards,
Jonathan

I can see the record at the cataloging searching and clicking on add/edit item it gives the following result;
