Inactive, deleted and soft deleted objects

Each object can be sent to SAP FSM with: 

1. The following deletion-related properties: 

• inactive (false/true) 

• deleted (false/true) 

2. Two different transaction type values: 

• C - Insert or Change 

• D – Delete  

Open

The difference between transaction type ‘D’ and property ‘deleted’ is that the first one is so to speak ‘hard deletion’/permanent deletion (including deletion of an entry in identifierMap table), while the property ‘deleted’ is ‘soft deletion’ – the deleted object can be recreated with its old GUID instead of creating a new one. 

When transferring objects with sending programs, the ‘Delete’ flag corresponds to hard deletion and ‘Soft delete' to soft deletion.
