Patrons
2. After you make your selections, click Delete. A confirmation message
appears. Click OK. While deleting the selected patrons, Patron Maintenance
displays a progress dialog. When the delete process ends, Patron
Maintenance produces an exception report that lists, for each patron meeting
the criteria, the patron name, barcode number, ID number, and whether the
patron was deleted or skipped (and the reason). If you chose to delete
patrons with active transactions, any copies that were checked out are
marked as lost, and any fines, refunds, or holds are deleted.
Deleting patrons with a PHD
This feature lets you delete multiple patron records based on barcode data that is
stored in a PHD. You can also determine whether you are going to delete patrons
with outstanding checkouts, fines, refunds, or holds.
Warning:
All deletions are immediate. You cannot undo them by canceling the
process. The data cannot be recovered. Remember to erase any
previous scans in your PHD so that no patron records are
unintentionally deleted. To erase scans from a PHD+, PHD+ II, or
PHD Laser+, see page 664. For a PHD , see page 679.
1. With your PHD, scan the barcodes of the patrons you want to delete. For
instructions on collecting patron scans with the PHD+, PHD+ II, or PHD
Laser+, see Collecting inventory, copy, or patron data" on page 663. To
collect patron barcodes with a PHD , see page 676.
When you finish collecting scans, connect your PHD to your computer. See
the manufacturer's documentation or Appendix E, Using a PHD+, PHD+ II,
or PHD Laser+," or Appendix F, Using a PHD ," for instructions.
Note:
To make sure you have scanned the correct barcodes, generate a list of
the patron names stored in your PHD before deleting their records.
(See Generating a Patron Name List" on page 575.)
