Can I delete users?

Remove a user from Connect.

Use Delete Users to remove users from the User database in System Management. Run the Delete Users routine to remove users from the application. You can only remove a user if the user is not linked to related transactions. Remember, if you can't delete a user because related transactions exist, you can change the user record status to inactive to prevent others from using it.

Before you get started

Before proceeding, back up the current files. Always make a back up of the database BEFORE running routines that modify or delete transactions. See the help topic titled How do I back up the database?

Deleting users from System Management

1. Open Connect System Management > Security > Delete Users.
