Overview

Managing deleted tasks in the Electronic Lab Logs application involves both viewing deletion histories and understanding available restoration options. In this article, we cover how to check if a task was deleted, explore whether deleted tasks can be restored, and discuss alternative actions in case restoration is not feasible.


Viewing Deleted Records

To check if a task or record was deleted, you can access the deletion history through the following steps:

  1. Open the Menu in your Electronic Lab Logs application.

  2. Navigate to Reports and look for the option labeled Deleted History. This section displays a list of all deleted records, allowing you to verify whether a particular task or record has been deleted.


Can a Deleted Task Be Restored?

Currently, the Electronic Lab Logs application does not support the restoration of deleted tasks. Once a task is deleted, it cannot be recovered. However, if the task needs to be re-entered for tracking purposes, you can manually recreate it. Follow these suggestions to ensure accuracy:

  • Recreate the task using the same details, including the original date and time, to align it with the missing entry.


Summary

Understanding the deletion history and knowing that tasks cannot be directly restored lets users operate within the limitations of the application. The Deleted History feature provides transparency on what records have been removed, and manual recreation serves as a workaround for restoring critical information.
