The MAINTAIN command with the DELETE keyword deletes members from non-concat dimensions and composites; or deletes the data of previously-partitioned variables from one partition to another as it changes the dimension or composite values defined for a partition in the partition template which the variables are dimensioned.
Note: You can also issue a MAINTAIN DELETE statement for a surrogate dimension that has a Maintain trigger.
