You can delete a user-defined payroll flow pattern provided it has never been submitted to start a payroll flow. The process involves navigating to the "Manage Payroll Flow Patterns" task, searching for the specific flow pattern, and then selecting the "Delete" option from the Actions menu. This action permanently removes the flow pattern and its associated task definitions. The system prevents the deletion of predefined patterns or any pattern that has been used.

A. Deleting individual tasks is not a prerequisite. The "Delete" action on the flow pattern removes the entire definition, including all its associated tasks.

C. Setting the flow pattern status to "Inactive" is not a required step before deletion. The delete action is directly available for unsubmitted, user-defined flows.

D. This statement is incorrect. User-defined payroll flow patterns can be deleted as long as they have not been submitted to run a process.

Content: This section explains that flow patterns are templates. The ability to delete a user-created template before it's used is a standard administrative function. The documentation implicitly supports that unused

user-defined configurations can be removed

contrasting with the immutability of used or predefined objects.
