====== Remove an Attribute from a Category ======

Attribute Types may be removed from use by a Category so long as the Attribute has not been used to describe an item.

If an Attribute has been used to describe an item, you may not remove (Delete) the Attribute: you may make the Attribute Inactive instead. See [[setup:optionalrecsetup:attributes:attributeinactive|Make an Attribute Inactive]] for information on how to make an Attribute Inactive.
