Delete only items that satisfy the selection criteria Select this check box to delete only the items from Cobra that meet the criteria selected. This option displays only when you import data into an existing project.

If your Cobra database contains multiple single projects loaded through the Integration Wizard, and a single project is being loaded, Cobra will only consider deleting items that are not in the schedule if the code field contains the name of the project being loaded. You can either enter the project name specifically in the Equals field, or you can enter the project name generically by using the reserved value <ProjectName>.

This option considers the deletion filter on the Change Control page and deletes items accordingly.
