You manage a solution's tables from the row of table tabs at its top. The + adds a table, and the menu next to each table's name deletes, duplicates, moves or hides it.

Here is the test: is the change about a whole table, not about its records or fields? Use the table's menu.

Example: a risk team keeps an Enterprise Risk Management solution. It duplicates the Risk Register to start an IT risk register, hides a KRIs table that only analysts use, and moves the Risk Domains tab next to the Risk Register.

Plan Availability	All plan types. A solution holds up to 100 tables. Recycle Bin: 14 days on a trial, 30 on Team, 45 on Professional, 60 on Enterprise and Signature.
