Alert - Patron Deletion Temporarily Turned Off
Issue:
Our development teams have identified an issue in the LX Admin delete patron workflow. Although this issues has not yet caused any problems, it had the potential to do so for both LX Starter and Discover customers. To mitigate any possible impact, we have proactively disabled the delete patron feature in LX Admin.
Impact:
As a result of this preventive measure, any patrons deleted in the ILS after September 23rd at 7PM ET, will continue to appear in LX Admin. Additionally, Sierra customers on version 6.2 will no longer see the option to delete patron records from within LX Admin.
We apologize for any inconvenience and will send an update as soon as the feature is available again.
