     • A registered compound contains it.

     • A deleted compound contained it.

   • A salt/solvate is considered to be unused and can be deleted:

     • It has never been used.

     • Registration of the compound with this salt/solvate failed and it is in the staging area.

     • It has been removed during amendment from all of the compounds that contained it.

2. Click to the Delete selected button.

3. Click to Proceed to confirm deletion.

Standardizer

The default general and parent Standardizer configurations

The list of available standardizer actions is available here.

Structure Checker

Two categories of structure checkers are found in the Registration system:

1. Quality Checkers are always running

2. Source-based checkers (optionally) can be set for a given source to be used during the registration.

These checkers can run as warnings (in the "do_not_fix" mode) or, if available they can be set to fix the structural problems. You can find more details on the Structure Checker and Structure Fixer page.
