Improved design for minimizing the risk of accidental deletion of a submission #32

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When working with a submission it would be a disaster if your submission accidentally gets deleted. In the current version of the FEGA Submitter Portal there is a button "Delete" appearing clearly in the interface(see screenshot below). It is not obvious for the submitter that this button has the functionality of deleting the submission. The function of the button can easily be misunderstood as for deleting the metadata in the tab you are working in. The warning given to the submitter (see screenhot below) is not enough in our opinion. The warning message is not clear enough (it is not clear that you delete a submission). Also, users may not read the message carefully enough.

Describe the solution you'd like We suggest that the delete submission button should be removed in order to hide this functionality more for the submitter.

For deleting a submission, we suggest that you need to do the following:

  1. Click on the user (hamburger) menu up to the right.
  2. Select "My Submissions" (second item in the menu). This will show you a list of all your submissions.
  3. NEW FEATURE: For deleting a specific submission, Click on a hamburger menu icon on the right end of the record. This should open up a menu where you can select "Delete submission"
  4. After you have clicked to delete the record, you should be asked for confirmation: "Are you sure you want to delete submission: {name of submission}?"

Describe alternatives you've considered

On the Submissions page: A delete icon next to the edit icon for each record in the table.
