How to delete obsolete or duplicate report templates from the Web Applications in PME

Issue
There are several obsolete or duplicate report templates that are listed in the Reports tab of the Web Applications that the user would like to remove.

Product Line
Power Monitoring Expert 9.0
Power Monitoring Expert 2020

Environment
Web Application - Reports

Cause
- Upgrading an existing installation of StruxureWare Power Monitoring to Power Monitoring Expert 9.0 will sometimes result in duplicate or old report templates being listed that were brought over with the ApplicationModules database of the old system. The user could have also uploaded custom report templates and no longer has a need for them.

- In case the Report Template is no longer needed and needs to be deleted

*Warning: Irreparable database damage can occur. This procedure should only be performed by users familiar with SQL Server Management Studio. Databases should be backed up prior to performing this procedure.*
