Deleting a room is unusually and dangerously easy to do in this program. First the user selects the room from the nav bar that they want to remove completely from the database
(Note that this permanently removes the room from the database, if the user desires to just make the room inactive- see schedule generation section).
Then the user presses the Delete button. A dialog pops up asking the user to confirm that they want to delete the current room. Using figure 1, to remove the fake "Room 400" we would just simply press the Delete button.
To read about the Save and Cancel buttons' functionality, use the "Previous" link at the bottom of the page.
After the user presses the Delete button, the following dialog would pop up:
Figure 2: Dialog for deleting a room
Figure 2 shows the dialog that pops up asking the user to confirm the deletion of the room. The system actually goes through the current schedule and finds all the currently scheduled times with this resource (in this case rooms) and lists them in a list box for the user to scroll through. It also counts the number of uses in the current schedule denoted by the Schedule Occurences; in this case the room was scheduled twelve times.
If the user clicks the Confirm Delete button, the room is removed from the database. Consequently, all spots on the current schedule that used this room prior to its deletion are replaced with the room TBD. If the user clicks the Cancel Delete button, the room remains in the database and everything remains as it was.
