How to Delete a Document

Remove a Required or E-signature Document from one Account or from your whole company, and understand what's lost

Written by Serena Edwards

You can delete a document in two places:

  • From one Account — Removes that document record, including its history, from that Account only

  • From your company's document list — Removes the document from every Account that has it, at every level

Before You Delete

WARNING:

  • Deleting a document from your company's document list removes it from every Account, whether it's at the Account, Enrollee, or Enrollment level

  • Deleting a document from an Account removes that record and its history

  • Deleted documents usually can't be restored. If you delete one by mistake, contact us through chat right away.

  • Only delete a document if you don't need to keep its history

If you only need to update a document, you don't have to delete it:

Find the Document on an Account

  • Go to Enrollees > Documents. This page may be called Students, Children, or something else in your account.

  • Search for the Enrollee in the Type to Filter box, or use Document Finder to list every Enrollee who has a specific document. Learn how to filter documents.

  • Click the Enrollee's name to see their documents

NOTE: You can't delete documents in bulk. Delete them from each Account one at a time.
