# Clear

The **Clear Task** allows you to remove records from a Map in Excel without deleting them from your CRM. The records will continue to exist in Salesforce.

Clear Task offers two modes: **Clear All** and **Clear Record ID**. The clear task support **Conditional Filters**, ensuring operations only run when filter conditions are met. This prevents unintended data clearing and gives Designers greater control.

## Getting Started

1. Click **Task** and select **New Clear Task**.
2. The **Clear Task** window will open, displaying the following options:
   * **Name**
   * **Map**
   * **Object Name**
   * **Mode**

## Modes

### **Clear All**

The **Clear All** mode removes all records from Excel and re-initializes the Map. Designers can enable the option **Ask for confirmation before clearing records** to avoid accidental deletions. Operations only proceed when **Conditional Filter** criteria are met.

### **Clear Record ID**

The **Clear Record ID** mode keeps records in Excel but removes their association with your CRM. When saved, these records are processed as **new records** in your CRM. Operations only proceed when **Conditional Filter** criteria are met.
