Delete Code Tables

Use the Code Table Maintenance form to delete unwanted code table entries. When you attempt to delete codes that have been used, Vision displays a warning to indicate that the codes will be blanked out everywhere they have been used.

In some cases, deleting codes can also result in deletion of records. Vision displays a warning. You cannot delete codes in a code table that is prefixed by sys. (Vision again displays a warning.) Certain codes, such as sysOwner, must be kept in the database. You can, however, change the description of codes beginning with sys. If codes prefixed with sys must be deleted, contact Vision Support.

To delete code table entries:

1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Configuration > General > Code Tables.
2. On the Code Table Maintenance form, click the description.
3. From the list, select the code that you want to delete.
4. Click Delete. Vision displays a warning message indicating the consequences of the deletion.
5. Click Yes to confirm and then click Save.
