[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Editing/deleting org units

[Turner, Jennifer M]

We were working with a fresh install with no patrons or items or even circ rules, which is why we were a bit stumped that deleting from the client didn't work.  Oh well, SQL did the job.  Thanks, folks!

My experience has been that the org tree can be edited from the staff client with a little trust in an minimalist UX (user experience)...

Unlike Microsoft Windows, if you attempt to delete an organization that has 'stuff' attached to it,  The Evergreen staff client gives an almost inaudible grunt and then blushes for split second.   That is the equivalent of Microsoft's pop-up windows method which would say "are you sure you want to delete this org unit?"  followed by "are you REALLY sure?" on through that final window that says:  "Look, we promise we will only ask one more time, but will you click 'OK' if you really want to delete this Org Unit even though it has stuff attached to it?".

Anyway, if you get the really quick red flash and the OU doesn't delete, you need to figure out what items and patrons and.... stuff are still attached to it.

Alternately.. you can use SQL.
