To permanently remove a badge from the database:
CAUTION: This procedure removes badge records from the database. Since it is possible to remove badge records
that should be retained, you should back up your database before running this procedure.
The Delete button is on the Badges form toolbar if the correct permissions have been set on the
Permissions form for the current operator. The Delete button is used to permanently remove
badge records from the Picture Perfect database. This process also removes the badge records from
all micros that have learned the badges and have the badge records in their databases.
Before any badge can be removed, it must have a badge status of Deleted. To assign the Deleted
status, see To change a badge status to deleted: on page 221.
Note:
Badge delete on person delete is controlled by a setting on the Badge Manager control of the form; by default it is
set not to delete associated badges when a person is deleted.
All badge removal activity is recorded in the operator history table.
1. Select Access, Badges, and then Badges tab.
2. When the Badges form appears, enter search criteria in one or more fields and click Find .
Select Deleted in the Status field as part of the criteria when using the Find button to select a
range of records.
3. Click Delete . The Badge Removal popup asks if you want to remove the records. If
record dependencies exist (for example if the badge is assigned to a Personnel record), a list
of these records displays. You must remove the dependencies before the badge record can
be deleted.
