# Related Data: Record Deleted (S)

This event initiates job execution when a record is deleted from a related data set. The record is deleted with the API method **​relatedDataDeleteRecord​.**

> Hint:
> 
> Depending on the content of the API call, more than one record may be deleted. However, the automation only executes once per API call

> Hint:
> 
> In Mapp Engage, the designation ​(S)​ means system-related. Generally, you only combine ​system (S) events​ with ​system (S) jobs​. For more information, see [Contact (C) vs. System (S) Automations](/v1/docs/contact-c-vs-system-s-automations)
