Unlinked persons must be deleted from SIMS. These may be applicants, agents, pupils, employees, contacts or other individuals whose historical personal data should no longer be retained in line with school policy and GDPR guidelines. Unlinked persons could still be present because at the time of deletion, a secondary role for the individual may have existed within SIMS.

Select Tools | Housekeeping | Delete Unlinked Persons to display the Delete Unlinked Persons page - click Search to display unlinked records

Select the check box at the top of the left-hand column to highlight all unlinked persons records and click the Delete button and confirm
The process may take some time to complete
