Introduction

Over time, certain skills in your organisation’s database may become obsolete or irrelevant due to evolving roles and changing technologies.

To maintain an up-to-date and clutter-free skills repository, uKnowva HRMS allows you to delete existing skills, whether individually or in bulk.

This ensures that the system only retains relevant and valid information aligned with your current operational needs.

Step 1: Deleting Multiple Skills at Once

Once you land on the Skills page, you’ll see a list of existing skills displayed under columns such as Skill Name, Action, Category, and Published.

To begin this process, first navigate to the Skills Master page. If you’re unfamiliar with how to access this page, please refer to the tutorial here.

To delete several skills at the same time, begin by selecting the checkboxes next to the names of the skills you want to remove.

After selecting the relevant entries, locate the bin icon positioned at the top-right corner of the screen and click it.

Immediately after, a confirmation alert will appear on your screen. Click OK to proceed with deleting all the selected skills.

If you decide not to go through with the deletion, simply click Cancel to stop the action.

Step 2: Deleting a Single Skill

If you only need to delete a specific skill, scroll through the list on the Skills page and find the entry you wish to remove.

Under the Action column for that row, click on the bin icon.

A confirmation alert will pop up, prompting you to confirm your decision.

Click OK to permanently delete the selected skill, or choose Cancel to exit the action without making any changes.

This allows you to remove only outdated or incorrectly added skills while preserving the rest.

Conclusion

That’s it!

You’ve now successfully deleted skills in uKnowva HRMS—either in bulk or individually.

By following this process, you ensure that your skills database remains accurate, relevant, and clutter-free.

Regularly managing and pruning outdated skill entries can improve the efficiency of talent management, reporting, and employee development efforts.
