# Creating and Deleting Statements in Salesforce Spiff

You don't manually create or delete statements in Salesforce Spiff. Instead, a nightly automated job creates and deletes statements based on changes in plan assignments, statement periods, user mappings, user records, and team automation.

## Automated Job Cadence

The automated job that creates and deletes statements runs nightly at approximately 11:00 PM Mountain Time USA.

## Creating Statements

The nightly job creates a statement when you create or update a plan assignment manually, from a data import, or through the API.

The System Activity Log includes entries for created statements.

## Deleting Statements

The nightly job deletes an unfrozen statement when you make these changes manually, from a data import, or through the API.

- When you delete a statement period, plan assignment, user, or user mapping that’s associated with the statement, the nightly job deletes the statement.
- When you modify a plan assignment’s effective dates so that the statement no longer falls within the date range, the nightly job deletes the statement.

Note You can’t delete a frozen statement. Unfreeze the statement first. Similarly, you can’t delete a plan assignment associated with a frozen statement unless you unfreeze the statement first.

The System Activity Log includes entries for deleted statements.
