It is recommended to have the Curriculum/Program Maintenance (previously known as Curriculum Clean Up automatic process), which is set up to run in System Administration > Automatic Processes > Curriculum/Program Maintenance), running.

If you don’t schedule the Curriculum/Program Maintenance process, then incorrect curricula and program assignments can remain with users. This process will modify active and inactive curricula and programs.

---

NOTE: It’s important to note that if the users have completed the old item and content revision, it will still show in their learning history page and in Learning admin reports, only if the admin keeps both the contents in the curricula content tab. If the admin removes the content from the curricula content, then the history data recorded while that content and curricula where bonded is erased. So you may want to  keep both and change the title of the new revised item so users can easily distinguish the different versions thus avoiding confusion when an item revision takes place.

NOTE: To Revise item while maintaining curriculum retraining settings in Learning, please check the KBA 2549031.
