Interesting discussion - considering a situation here at my job just
today/yesterday.

An email from a manager claiming that since this one employee is no
longer with the co. (although the email was late since the guy left
about 4 weeks ago) - was asking to have this User removed from these
various systems. So - I responded yesterday that I had deleted the
user record from this one system.

Then - this buddy of mine, another programmer here - he was out
yesterday, so he asks me about the deletion of the record. He was
worried that the deletion of the record would cause problems if there
are FK constraints! I told him he need not worry - since for the most
part in the system I did it - there really are mostly no FK's in
there. Of course, I know there are a couple - but, nothing that would
be impacted by the removal of a user from a table.

So - yes - I can relate.

-K-



I always advise to disable or deactivate and remove access rather than delete completely.
