Clearing Training or Test Data

Learn how to have your training or test data deleted during implementation

Updated on July 1st, 2024

During training or your own testing, you may create entries which may not be used in the future.

We strongly recommend you keep training data for any future lessons, however, it can be removed before using AroFlo with real data.

The entries deleted will include any real entries if they exist.

Due to complexity, AroFlo do not facilitate deletion of individual entries (such as specific tasks) or deletion based on certain criteria (such as a specific date range).

 

Request to delete data through AroFlo

You can send a written request (via support) to have the data deleted.

If you plan to start using real data on a specific date and would like all other data cleared the day before, please make a written request 5 business days prior.

 

Data will be deleted for all Business Units. We cannot delete data for specific business units only.

 

Please be aware data will be deleted by AroFlo, not just archived.

 

This will include all entries as listed below, not just those specific to training or your own testing.
