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 an Admin role. If no one in your library has an Admin 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
