Fair warning on that:
If the barcode in question is not the patron's current *primary*
barcode then there is no way outside of direct database access to flag
that barcode as inactive prior to 2.2.
The "Replace Barcode" code moves the current primary barcode to a
secondary non-active barcode and creates a new active primary barcode.
No other cards on the patron are affected.

Hi Gordana,
You can mark a patron's barcode inactive in the staff client by
replacing the barcode in the patron's account. When you edit a
patron's record you can choose "Replace Barcode" and enter in the
new barcode. After you save the changes, the old barcode will be
inactive.
Hope this helps!

Hi Sharon,
Thanks for pointing that out. I found it but what happens is it
makes the patron inactive. What we would like to do is mark only
one barcode inactive...one was added to the record that is
incorrect. It's actually a different patron's barcode. So when we
use it, we bring up the wrong patron.
Thanks though!

Under the question "Internet Access Level" is "Active" with a box
and there should be a check mark in the box. Click in the box and
it should uncheck and the card will be inactive.

Hi there,
I'm trying to mark a patron barcode as inactive but, for the life
of me, I can't figure out how to do it!
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm sure it's obvious
but I'm just not seeing it.
Thanks!
Gordana
