If you have one or more different issues for the same copy that you want to delete, you can delete one or more copy issues for individual copies from the Copy History window. (For example, you may have a bound copy of issues that you are discarding and no longer want the issues available on your Horizon system.) You can also delete one or more copy issues of the same issue for different copies from the Issue Detail window.
If you want to delete all copy issues and the issue record of the same issue, see Deleting an Issue . (You do this from the Issue window.)
Effects
• | Horizon deletes the specific copy issues you choose. |
• | If you delete the last copy issue record for an issue, Horizon also deletes the issue record. |
• | Horizon updates the summary of holdings. |
• | Horizon deletes any routing information for the issue. |
• | Horizon updates the pending issue count as necessary. |
• | Horizon updates corresponding Issue, Issue Detail, and Copy History windows. |
Constraints
• | You can delete copy issues only for the checkin locations for which you have authorized access. |
• | You cannot delete a copy issue if it has an item record, or if the issue’s status indicates that it is in the process of being claimed or bound. |
Before You Begin
• | You must make sure that all item records for a copy’s related issues are deleted—this includes any archived item records for your reserve book room. |
