Hi Angela, Thanks for replying. Right now, there are 2 barcodes associated with that record. To explain, we're an academic library and we get our records from the registrar's office. Because records need a barcode, we decided to go with the student # as the place holder until they come into the library and use their card for the first time. If I go into the patron record, the only # I can manipulate is the default student # and not the offending incorrect barcode. So I can't replace it. As much as I would like to... :-) Thanks! Gordana

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!

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!

Click in the box and it should uncheck and the card will be inactive.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm sure it's obvious but I'm just not seeing it. Thanks!
