# system.kanoa.cmms.deleteProcedureStep(procedureStepId, userId)

Deletes a single step from a procedure by id. Call this when a step was added in error or is no longer part of the correct procedure workflow. 
The underlying SQL will prevent deletion if the procedure step has already been used � for example, if procedure step events or checks reference it � 
so the deletion fails safely rather than leaving orphaned execution history.

**userId** `Integer`:Id of the user executing the function<br />
