How to purge objects in batch

Could someone enlighten me and tell me how I can purge objects from Predict in batch (z/OS).

When I try to purge an object I do see that this command is invoked, but it expects a DELETE (see log).


Type … Subprogram
Enter purge option:
If you enter ‘DELETE’:
The program, all links to children from this program and all links to
this program from parents are purged.

DATA DELETE
FIELD
DATA PURGE PR P:A70114A
NAT9987 Natural session terminated abnormally - RC=115.


How can I provide the DELETE option?

Kind regards,
Rudolf

It does work. Just add DELETE on the next line.

Does anyone know how I can force PREDICT to continue in case an object does not exist?
