Restore Deleted Courses

A Course consists not only the course record itself, but also its class, enrolment and attendance records. Accidental deletion can therefore result in a significant loss of work.

Rather than physically deleting a course record from the database, a technique known as a soft delete is used. We simply identify or flag the record as no longer required and then ignore it when reading records from the database. In other systems, you might recognise this as moving the item to trash. The advantage of this technique is that it is a simple matter of removing the deletion flag to reinstate or restore the records.

This procedure restores Course records previously deleted in the system.

To restore, select the required records from the grid. Then click the Restore Courses from the grid's toolbar.
