How to Lock a Record

To Lock CrimeStar data records use the following simple steps:

Step 1: Make sure you have ADMIN capability, as the Record Locking function is part of the ‘System ‘ menu

Step 2: Recall a record (i.e.: Citation). Don't query a record, do an actual recall. Now with the record recalled, the Record Access/Locking menu item should be selectable from the system menu.

Step 3: Click on the Record Access menu item. When the Record Locking form appears select the edit and delete level access required to take action against that record and click on the SAVE button. Now the displayed/recalled record's locking levels have been updated.
