BusinessObjects Enterprise Administrator's Guide

Deleting a user account

Use this procedure to delete a user's account. The user might receive an error if they are logged on when their account is deleted. When you delete a user account, the Favorites folder, personal categories, and inbox for that user are deleted as well.

If you think the user might require access to the account again in the future, select the "Account is disabled" check box in the Properties page of the selected user, instead of deleting the account. See Modifying a user account.

Note:    Deleting a user account won't necessarily prevent the user from being able to log on to BusinessObjects Enterprise again. If the user account also exists in a third-party system, and if the account belongs to a third-party group that is mapped to BusinessObjects Enterprise, the user may still be able to log on. For details, see Deleting an alias and Disabling an aliases.
