Procedure
Follow the instructions in this procedure to delete items from WorkFlows using a discard user account. The discard procedure works well if:
- Your library has many items to delete from WorkFlows, such as from a weeding project.
- The discard procedure can also be used instead of deleting items manually from WorkFlows using the Delete Titles, Call Numbers, or Items wizard.
- The discard procedure is especially helpful if you need to track deletion statistics for your board or administration. If you need to track how many items you deleted from WorkFlows, and you use the Delete Titles wizard for the deletions, WorkFlows is unable to track how many items you deleted. If tracking deletions is helpful for your library’s operations, RSA strongly recommends using the discard method described in this document.
