Monday Minutes: User Permission to Delete Borrowers

by Jessie Zairo on May 23, 2022

In this week's Monday Minutes, Kelly and Jessie show off a new enhancement that allows administrators to control, at a more fine-grained level, which users may delete patron records. Administrators will now see a new delete_borrowers user permission. This new enhancement which will be available in 21.11 is driven from [15788] Split borrowers permission into create/edit and delete permissions.
