    <p>I currently have a Vendor Model which acts as sort of a router for my users. This Vendor Model links up to locations that the vendor owns and campaigns as well. </p> <p>Once a user is created, it is given a Vendor association which basically unlocks the locations and campaigns that pertain to that given Vendor.</p> <p>Now, my question is, is there a way that when a Vendor is "Destroyed" that is can destroy all associated locations, campaigns and users linked to it? If not, is there a way to run a validation that if a Vendor is being destroyed to check the database for associations and not allow the action of destroy if it finds records?</p> <p>The reason I ask is because if I destroy the Vendor, it leaves the users without locations and campaigns without an associated Vendor which basically crashes my application.</p> <p><strong>User Model</strong></p> <pre><code>belongs_to :vendor #user can only have one vendor has_many :locations, :through =&gt; :vendor has_many :clients, :through =&gt; :vendor has_many :campaigns, :through =&gt; :vendor </code></pre> <p><strong>Location Model</strong></p> <pre><code>belongs_to :vendor has_many :campaigns </code></pre> <p><strong>Campaign Model</strong></p> <pre><code>belongs_to :location belongs_to :user belongs_to :vendor has_one :client </code></pre> <p><strong>Vendor Model</strong></p> <pre><code>has_many :locations #vendor can own many locations has_many :clients #vendor can have many clients. Allows multiple employees to see client list has_many :campaigns #vendor can have many campaigns. Allows multiple employees to see campaigns </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
