Setting Patron Salutation As Mandatory On Patron Insert

To make the salutation a mandatory field whenever a new patron record is created:
  1. Go to Setup >> System Tables >> Code Tables.
  2. Scroll to Patron Salutation.

    A blank salutation is set as a default by Theatre Manager. The default value in a code table is marked with a dot to the left of the entry.

  3. Highlight that blank salutation and click the Remove Default button.

    This removes the blank default salutation.

  4. Remove the blank salutation using the Delete button.

    If it has been used in a patron record, you will not be able to remove it. Mark it inactive.

  5. To mark a value inactive, follow instructions found here.
