hi Manos, before you do so backup your database

Then go to SO Admin | File Connect the Db | Then go to Query and click New: run the below query one by one

delete from supplierlist from department,item where item.departmentidÞpartment.id and item.id=supplierlist.itemid and department.code='xx'

delete from alias from department,item where item.departmentidÞpartment.id and item.id=alias.itemid and department.code='xx'

delete from item from department where item.departmentidÞpartment.id and department.code='xx'

onces work rate me,or if need more help feel free to ask.
