Hi,
This time, I've got an answer that might help you.
If you build custom clients for your location you can specify the
permachine target when doing the make command to build the client.
If you don't build your own, all the above does is copy a file into

Well, I am sorry that I was not obvious enough.But CERTAINLY I would not
want to delete anything with items / volumes / copies attached. That is just
silly.
But I seriously don’t care about the bib / item / copy etc when it CAN be
deleted. I don’t want “ historical” data. Th
There are other issues that can come up with reporting and aged
circulations but those are more workflow issues than technical ones.
All of this being a very long way of saying there are pros and cons with
every choice. :)

Based on another reply I think she meant more of permanently deleting than
cascading a delete. I wasn't clear on that initially. I think there would

No. Just No. Unless it was totally configurable and could never, ever show

I think I have asked this before - or a variation thereof. I was just
wondering if maybe someone has come up with a creative solution since before.

That's good to know, I thought they were all deleted. For me it's still an
issue as it means we would lose statistical data associated with the user as it
relates to transactions. For my needs anonymizing identifiable information is
better.

Boy, it sure would be nice if we had the same options with books. (i.e. bib

Hi Rogan,
Thank you for replying. One thing you mentioned has piqued my interest. It
might be easier if I gave a scenario instead of trying to describe what I mean.

There are a few different kinds of deleting in Evergreen. One is to turn
on the deleted flag on the account. That doesn't do much other than hide
the account from the staff client pulling it up and is relatively harmless.
The other kind of deleting is obliterating the account. This is the delet
Our old ILS would not allow you to remove a patron until all outstanding bills,
