If you don't want to manually do this, your best bet is to do it with the Alteryx API and it will involve several API calls. https://help.alteryx.com/current/en/server/api-overview.html ...you will need to search for the user first and then locate their assets and schedules and then do a delete.

To add more to what @SGolnik wrote about, deleting the document inside the database can cause indexing issues, especially if those workflows have results from recent runs that haven't been deleted. You're better off using the API.
