A staff member has left. How do I delete their account and will their work be lost?
Applies to
- WorldShare Admin
Answer
- Follow the instructions on deleting users
- Deleting staff members works the same way as deleting patrons
- Deleting user accounts can only be done by someone who has a User Admin role. If no one in your library has this role, have the Head of the Library contact OCLC Support
- No work will be lost with this deletion. The only thing tied to a staff member are WSKeys that they have requested against their name. These expire after six months
- Any borrowing that this staff member has done will be recorded in reports as N/A after the user has been purged by the system
