How to move Grade 4 students to the Old Borrowers table?

• Open the Borrowers table.
• There are 155 students in the library system from grade 1 to grade 4.

• Click the Advanced Search tab and define the search query. The CUSTOM1 data field stores the grade value. We will try to move all grade 4 students to the Old Borrowers table in this example.
• Select CUSTOM1, choose "Contains", enter "Grade 4", click Include, and then click the Search button.
• In the search result, there are 25 grade 4 students.

• Click the Move Borrowers tab, select "All Borrowers", and click the Move Borrowers button. The application moves all displayed records to the Old Borrowers table.

• If you move or delete the borrower record, the program deletes all borrowers' loan transactions.

• The borrowers' table does not display any students on the grid because the search is active.
• To deactivate the search, click Clear.

• Review the record numbers.
• There were 155 students, 25 students from grade 4, and now we have 130 students.

You cannot delete or move a borrower record if the borrower has outstanding (not returned) items. Before moving the borrower, you have to process check-in transactions.

Question: How do I delete borrowers? The Eighth grade graduated in June 2017 and I want to remove their names as well as some other children who have transferred to other schools. I will do this later in the school year.

Answer: Define advanced search to display only Eighth grade students. Click Miscellaneous, and click Delete All Borrowers. The system will delete only displayed borrowers. Before executing Delete All create a backup of your library databases.
