Description Barbara Johnson 2021-01-26 17:23:24 UTC
In 'Manage staged MARC records' it is a two-step process to remove a .mrc file.  It first must be cleaned and then it must be deleted.  It would be nice if it was possible to select multiple .mrc files to clean and delete rather than having to perform the two-step process for every single file.  

We do have a cron job that batch deletes the oldest files on a regular basis.  
But recently we exported and then re-imported some digital files. The acquisitions staff would rather not all of those .mrc files jumbled in with the .mrc files they are importing for new materials.  So it would be helpful to be 
able to select specific files all at once and get rid of them in a batch.

This would be useful for our library too.

We update our electronic collections often and we clean those as soon as we are done with the uploads. It's very time consuming.

While the cronjob can take care of them, we prefer to hold on to our print collection files longer than we do our electronic collection files.

This feature would be really useful, especially for quickly deleting multiple .mrc files. It’d be great to see this in a future release.
