Deleted items and restore

Deleted Items are records removed from active lists but retained for history.

Screenshot needed: Deleted Items or restore action

What this is for

Use Deleted Items and restore when a record was removed from active work and later needs to be viewed or brought back.

Who uses it

Owners and admins with restore permission.

Steps

  1. Open the relevant module.
  2. Use the Deleted Items view if the page provides one.
  3. Open the removed record.
  4. Click Restore if available.
  5. Add a reason if the screen asks.

Important notes

MARC retains records for audit and history. Normal users should say remove or restore, not permanently delete.

Common mistakes

  • Looking for removed records in the normal active list.
  • Restoring without checking why the record was removed.
  • Removing records instead of correcting simple data mistakes.
