SAP SuccessFactors Learning

• The deletion of primary records (ex.: Items, classes, learners/user, domains, categories, curricula, locales, etc.) from Learning is discouraged and in many cases not possible through the front end of the application.
• In most cases, the records cannot be deleted due to referential integrity constraints that have been built into the application: the primary records have interacted with other records in the database which has built a chain of relationships in the database structure.
• Deleting records that are bound to referential integrity constraints, without addressing the appropriate trail of integrity constraints (which can be numerous), can have broad reaching negative impact on the application.
• For these reasons we recommend inactivating primary records in cases where they cannot be deleted.

• Records can be deleted immediately after creation and before any association with other entities is made.
• After the record has been associated with other entities, the resolution is to:

1. "INACTIVATE" the record as in most cases deletion of primary records is not supported in the system >
2. When this option is unavailable, you may add 'Do Not Use' or a similar message of your choice to the record description and remove from catalog/library access >
3. Contact our Professional Services team to have a script built to delete the entities.
