Delete an Ethnicity Code

Use the following steps to delete an existing ethnicity code.

 

 

  1. Click Edit > System Tables > Codes > Ethnicity.
     

  2. In the Ethnicity Table Maintenance dialog, highlight the ethnicity code you want to delete, and then click the Delete button.

    NOTE: You only have the ability to delete user-created ethnicity codes. System codes, those code with a Y in the System column, cannot be deleted.



     

  3. A Delete Record dialog will appear, asking you to confirm the deletion. Click the Yes button.


     

  4. After the Yes button has been clicked, the ethnicity code will become inactive. You have the ability to reactivate the code by editing the applicable code, if this ethnicity code needs to be used in the future.



     

  5. Repeat steps 2 - 4 for any other ethnicity codes you wish to delete.

     

  6. When finished, click the Save All button.
