Delete a Broadcast Message

A broadcast message conveys critical information that needs immediate attention. They are saved in the Ohio SACWIS database until they are deleted. A deleted message is not included in searches.

Search the Ohio SACWIS database for existing broadcast message records as follows:

1. Click the Administration tab at the top of the screen. The Staff tab appears along with other tabs.

2. Click the Maintenance tab.

3. Click the Broadcast Message link in the light-blue menu on the left. The Broadcast Message Search Criteria screen appears.

4. In the Agency field, select the agency to which the message applies.

5. Click the Search button. Broadcast messages that apply to the agency you selected appear in the search results table.

6. Click the Delete link next to the message you want to permanently remove from the database. You can delete only the messages you created. The system asks if you're sure you want to delete the message.

7. Click the OK button. The message is deleted.
