Re: [IUG] Remove Cancel All Button

Thanks for another good idea.
I tried this one too, but I must be doing something wrong 'cause I can't get the suppress_option to work.

We use the SUPPRESS_OPTION outlined on page 106891 of the manual.  It works for us - the Cancel All button doesn't appear in our records anymore.

Subject: [IUG] Remove Cancel All Button

Does anyone know if I can do this, and if so, how to remove the Cancel All button from the patroninfo screen in My Millennium?  The last person I spoke with at III doesn't believe it is possible to do what I'm trying to do.
 
Our patrons just can't seem to get a grip on the difference between Cancel All and Update List, even though you get a warning after clicking Cancel All that this will affect ALL your holds with an opportunity to cancel.  Our Circ. Mgr. has had about enough irate phone calls from patrons who have cancelled 45 or so holds in one (actually two) clicks of the mouse.
 
We use pat_psearch_update instead of pat_cancelmark because we use the Freeze Holds function.  I was told we cannot use both--of course not--that's what would make the most sense, a button for cancelling holds and one for freezing holds.  Hmmm.... enhancement request on the way.
 
Anyway, making But_Pat_Cancel_All inactive just turns the icon into a button with text, so it's still there.  I really need to get rid of this function.  Anyone?  Please help!
 
Thanks!
Tyra
