Deleting a copy
When a copy is no longer a part of your collection, you can delete its information.
Keep in mind that deleting a copy also deletes its holds, fines, and statistics.
Deleting a copy is an irreversible action. However, if you delete a copy with
pending transactions, the application generates an exception report listing the
copy's barcode, former copy status, and any actions taken on related patron
records, including fine amounts.
To delete an individual copy, first locate the record (see Finding MARC
records..." on page 240). From the MARC View window (see page 285), highlight
the copy you want to delete, and click Delete Copy. At the message, click Yes.
Warning: Once you verify the deletion, the process can not be stopped or
reversed.
See also: If you need to delete several copies at once, and the library has a PHD,
see page 342 for instructions.
To delete several copies at once using a scanner, see page 337.
To globally delete copies with copy status of Lost or an inventory status of
Missing, see page 330.
To automatically delete a title record when its last copy is deleted, open the
System Setup module, select Setup | Cataloging | Misc, and select the Delete
Title When Last Copy is Deleted check box. A title record deletion then occurs
whether the copy is deleted manually or by a Cataloging feature such as Delete
Copies via PHD, Delete Copies via Scanner, Global Delete Lost Copies, or Global
Delete Missing Copies. If you manually delete a copy in the MARC View
window, before the actual title deletion occurs, a confirmation message appears.
This prevents any unintentional deletions while you are cataloging.
