Log into the NPI client application, then select Libraries > Assembly Library.
Note
You can also delete an assembly from the Part Library using the same procedure.
Use the Search for field to locate the assembly, select Show Only Assemblies, then select the binoculars
button to start the search. (Use the desired search filters to help find the assembly quickly by part number type.)
Select the assembly from the list, then select the Delete
button at the top of the window.
