When you delete a picklist, the Client removes both the picklist and all access control markings it contains from every associated file plan element, user, and group. Although you typically cannot modify records under a retention hold, this operation removes all markings in the deleted picklist from records under a retention hold that have the markings applied. To remove a picklist from the server permanently, complete the following steps.
This process might expend significant server resources.
