How to Delete an Upload Queue

On This Page

Catalogers can easily delete import queues from the Inspect Queue tab of the Import/Export interface by selecting the queue to be deleted and deleting from the Action Menu.

Upload queues are similar in concept to buckets. Choosing the action Delete Queue deletes the queue, not the records within the catalog. If you are having trouble importing a set of records, it is important to keep the queue for 30 days for troubleshooting purposes. 

To delete an upload queue:

1. Check the box next to the queue(s) you wish to delete
2. Select Delete Queue. A dialog box opens to confirm the deletion.
3. Click OK.

The screen refreshes and your queue is gone.

You can delete a bibliographic records queue but cannot, at this time, delete acquisitions queues.
