When a record is deleted in Smart Completions, it is not completely removed. It is un-assigned from the project, but the record still exists. This is to prevent data loss in case a Batch Delete mistakenly removes many records at once. These records will still appear if you choose the “My Projects” or “All Projects” option from the Projects Dropdown.
The Purge/Restore button allows you to either purge these records from the database or to restore them to their assignments before deletion. Only users with the appropriate rights granted can use this feature.
