Is there a way to delete multiple computer records from the JSS database using the web console?

JSS 9.x - Mass Computer Deletion

The Action button at the bottom of a results search does this. Do your search, click the "Action >" button at the bottom of the results, then choose the "Delete Computers" option and click "Next"
But, before you do this, are you sure you want to? Keep in mind all historical data of those Macs will be lost, even if they get re-enrolled just seconds later. Depending on your circumstances, a sometimes better option is to un-manage them, but sadly this can't be done en masse, either in version 8.x or 9.x.

+6Ah - Thanks for the guidance, i just updated our dev environment to 9.12 and I'm still getting used to the new UI. So I guess the computer deletion is all or nothing it seems? In my case, this is OK, since i want to delete the records of our production machines, and just add a few dev machines.
Thanks again.
