# Delete organisations in bulk

Instead of [deleting organisation items individually](/totara-20/docs/delete-an-organisation), you can delete many organisation items from a framework at once using bulk actions.

To bulk delete organisation items, follow these steps:

1. Go to *Quick-access menu > Organisations*.
2. Click **Manage organisations**.
3. Click the name of the organisation framework containing the organisation items you need to delete.
4. Select **Delete** from the **Bulk actions** dropdown menu.
5. Select the organisations you wish to delete from the left-hand column, then click **Add** to add them to the right-hand column (hold the **Ctrl** key to select multiple items).
6. Click **Delete selected organisations**.
7. A warning message is displayed, click **Yes** to confirm.

The selected organisation items are now deleted.
