There are two types of records that support deletion tracking. Each type uses a different data source, and the approach you use to search for the records is different depending on the type.
- Records that use the old data source – These records use the old data source that was designed for saved searches and reports. To search for deleted records of this type, you can use the Deleted Record search type. For more information, see Searching Deleted Records That Use the Old Data Source.
- Records that use the new analytics data source – These records use the new analytics data source that was designed for SuiteAnalytics Workbook. To search for deleted records of this type, you can use a SuiteQL query in either SuiteScript or SuiteAnalytics Connect. For more information, see Searching for Deleted Records That Use the New Analytics Data Source.
Deleted Record Search

You can determine whether a record can be used as a filter for deleted record searches by looking at its page in the Records Browser. The Supports Deleted Record Search designation appears on pages for records that can be used as filters. For information about running deleted record searches in the UI, see Searching for Deleted Records.
The retrieval of deleted records in SOAP web services is a bit different. You can use the getDeleted operation instead of running a search. For a complete list of supported record types for this operation, refer to the DeletedRecordType enumeration in the coreTypes spreadsheet.
