Utilities

Warning:

Performing this operation will remove all patron statistics. Once the

Remove Patron History process begins, the changes cannot be

undone.

Empty Database

The Empty Database utility erases the entire database, including bibliographic

and authority records, copies, keywords, indexes, setup information, and

patrons.

Warning:

The Empty Database utility deletes all information from the

database, including MARC records, copies, and patrons.

The deletion cannot be undone.

Important:

Do not run this utility unless directed to do so by Follett Software

Company's Technical Support department.

To remove the contents from the library database, select Empty Database from

the Advanced menu. A message appears, warning you that the process cannot be

interrupted and asking you to confirm the command. If you verify the decision to

empty the database, a second message appears, asking you to finalize the

decision. Click Yes to proceed. A progress dialog appears while the utility

empties the library database.
When the utility finishes, the Cancel button on the progress dialog changes to

Close. To exit the progress dialog, click Close.

Note:

If you are running Union Catalog Plus, Empty Database does not delete

member configuration information. If you want to delete all configuration

information about a member, open System Setup | Member, highlight the

desired member, and click Delete.
