About This Feature

Overview

Delete Data Table is a table-management action in WPS for iOS that lets you remove datasheets or dashboard tabs you no longer need in a multidimensional table.

This feature is useful when you want to clean up test tables, remove outdated dashboards, or simplify a crowded table structure before sharing. The deletion flow includes a confirmation prompt to help reduce accidental removal on mobile devices.

Key points include:

Delete a datasheet or dashboard tab from the top tab area.
Confirm the deletion before the selected item is removed.
Limit the direct deletion effect to the currently selected datasheet or dashboard.

System Requirements

Item	Requirement
Operating system	An iPhone or iPad that can run WPS Office
App version	It is recommended to use the latest version of WPS Office
Network	No mandatory network connection is required for deleting content already opened locally; a stable connection is recommended if you need cloud sync
Other	You need to open the target multidimensional table successfully and have permission to edit it

Download & Installation

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Supports deleting a selected datasheet or dashboard tab from the top tab area in a multidimensional table on iOS after confirmation.	Excel provides worksheet management for spreadsheet files and is designed for maintaining worksheet structure in spreadsheets.	Google Sheets provides worksheet management and collaborative editing for online spreadsheet workflows.	Notion databases support database and page organization, but they are not traditional cell-based spreadsheets.	Acrobat focuses on PDF workflows and does not provide a native spreadsheet component equivalent to multidimensional table tab deletion.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS is centered on datasheet and dashboard tab management inside multidimensional tables on iOS. Distinct: The delete flow includes a confirmation step that helps reduce accidental taps on mobile.	Compared with WPS: the cited official Excel page presents spreadsheet creation and analysis broadly, rather than a multidimensional table tab deletion workflow.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets is more focused on online spreadsheet collaboration than multidimensional table tab management.	Compared with WPS: Notion offers flexible database organization, but its product model differs from tab-based datasheet management in multidimensional tables.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat is built for PDF tasks, so there is no native same-component match for this table action.

Overall Conclusion
WPS is a closer fit for users who need to manage datasheets and dashboard tabs inside multidimensional tables on iOS. Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets are stronger matches for general spreadsheets, Notion is oriented toward database organization, and Adobe Acrobat is not a same-component alternative for this task.

Use Cases

No.	Scenario	Suitable For	Main Issue	How WPS Helps
1	Cleaning up test datasheets	Table maintainers	Temporary test tables remain in production files	Delete unused datasheet tabs from the top tab area
2	Removing outdated dashboards	Project owners	Old dashboards make the table harder to review	Remove dashboard tabs that are no longer needed
3	Simplifying table structure	Team collaborators	Too many tabs make navigation harder	Keep only necessary tabs and remove redundant ones
4	Preparing before sharing	Business users	Internal temporary tables are still visible before handoff	Delete temporary datasheets before sharing
5	Cleaning up before relation changes	Advanced users	Old tables remain even after they stop being used	Check references first, then delete the target datasheet
