Concept: Custom Report Deletion

Concept: Custom Report Deletion

You can access these tasks to delete custom reports that have no usages:
  • Delete Custom Report
     enables you to delete 1 report.
    You must have access to the
    Custom Report Management
     and
    Manage: All Custom Reports
     domains in the System functional area.
  • Mass Delete Custom Reports
     enables you to delete 1 or more reports.
    You must have access to the
    Custom Report Management
     and
    Manage: All Custom Reports
     domains in the System functional area.
You can't delete custom reports that you use in:
  • Business form layouts.
  • Business process steps.
  • Other custom reports.
  • Report groups.
  • Scheduled future processes.
You can’t recover deleted reports in your production tenant. Before you delete reports in your production tenant, Workday recommends you:
  • Delete them in your Sandbox tenant.
  • Discuss reports that you want to delete with report owners.
  • Rename or tag reports you want to delete. You can send a report of those custom reports to others who you might impact by their deletion.
If you inadvertently delete reports, you can check your Sandbox tenant for copies before the weekly Sandbox tenant refresh runs.
You can view deleted reports by accessing the
View User or Task or Object Audit Trail
 report.
