Delete 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 dialog of the selected user (instead of deleting the account).

Note: Deleting a user account does not necessarily prevent the user from being able to log in 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 in.

To delete a user account

1. Go to the Users and Groups management area of the CMC.
2. Select the user you want to delete.
3. Click Manage, Delete.

   The delete confirmation dialog displays.

4. Click OK.

   The user account is deleted.
