Remove a Violation

A violation may need to be removed.

PREREQUISITES: The Violations security function and its associated sub-functions must be selected for the security role you belong to. See Security Roles for more information. You must have at least one fee set up in the database. See Fee Setup for more information.

IMPORTANT: Trimble strongly recommends that you do not remove a violation if there are any records associated with it. Instead, make the violation inactive to preserve the historical data associated with it.

If the violation has already been associated with a case, the safe way to remove the violation from use is to deactivate it as follows:

1. From the home page, click Permitting and click Violations Library.

TIP: You can filter the list of records displayed. See Filter Records for more information.

2. On the Violations panel, select the violation you want to remove.
3. On the Violations Details panel, turn off the Active switch.

NOTE: Your changes are automatically saved, and the changes are verified by a notification at the bottom of the page.

If the violation has not been associated to one or more cases, you can remove it as follows:

1. From the home page, click Permitting and click Violations Library.
2. Select the violation you want to remove and click Delete selected records.

3. Click Delete on the confirmation panel.
