Revert a customization, back out the update set rather than deleting it.
Administrators can delete an update set only when it isn't the current update set and contains no sys_update_xml entries. For example, after merging update sets, you might want to remove the original sets. This capability is
governed by an access control rule (ACL) applied to the sys_update_set table.  
Don't delete sys_update_xml entries, because this action:

* Doesn't undo the updates.
* Removes any record of who applied the customizations.
* Removes the sys_update_xml entries associated with the update set, so customizations are overwritten when the instance is upgraded.

When you try to delete an update entry, a warning message appears. Select OK to confirm the deletion.
