xFlow uses a different process to delete downline positions, depending on the program structure. Below explains how xFlow deletes downline positions from each program structure.

7.4.1 Network (unlimited width)

When a downline position is deleted from a network (unlimited width) program structure, the software moves the existing downline members up one level in the program structure. The direct sponsor of the downline position's direct downline is also transferred up one level. However, if compression is off for the program structure, a blank spot will be created in the downlines, where the member used to be.

7.4.2 Forced Matrix

If full compression is turned on, starting with the downline position being deleted, the software will cycle through the matrix, and take the left most member on each first level downline, until it hits the bottom of the matrix. For each left most member, the software will compress the member up one level in the downlines. When a member is compressed up, their entire downline and upline will change to the position they are taking over.

If no compression is on, the software simply deletes the downline position from the matrix, without any compression, and leaves a blank spot where the position used to be.
