# Control Line Item Deletion
Control the deletion of saved line items based on their status by specifying a Boolean field that determines whether deletion is allowed. If the specified field value is true, the delete button will be disabled for the corresponding line item.
{% hint style="warning" %}
DelDeletion control applies only within the Line Item Editor and does not affect Salesforce internal processes like API operations, Data Loader, or manual deletion.
{% endhint %}
### Example: Restrict Deletion of Approved Opportunity Products
{% hint style="info" %}
This example demonstrates the configuration of a Line Item Editor for Opportunity Products:
* **Parent:** Opportunity
* **Line Item:** OpportunityLineItem
* **Lookup:** PricebookEntry
{% endhint %}
For Opportunity Products linked to an Opportunity, deletion should be restricted when the product is in an approved state. To configure this, the `Approved__c` field is used to control deletion.
#### Builder Setup
Set the `Approved__c` field as the deletion control field in the builder. Enter the API name of the field into the Deletion Control Field setting.
#### Result
When the `Approved__c` field value is true, the delete button is hidden, preventing deletion of the corresponding line item.
