Comment #4 on issue 128 by christian.a.reiter: Not possible to erase items
http://code.google.com/p/freemedforms/issues/detail?id=128
Yes, confirmed, Esteban means that this are not patient data - it is not
possible to delete forms that was created, even if there is no data in them.
We must find a way to erase forms, at least if they are empty.
The problem is that e.g. in a running system where it should be NOT
possible to erase patient data, you cannot erase a form because this erases
ALL data that is saved in that form.
Proposal:
Allow to erase (really ERASE!) forms that have no data in it yet.
Could this be an option?
Another option would be that these forms are just hidden (which blows up
the database if a doctor creates 25 forms and deletes them again, but ok.)
I think GNUMED does this as well with data: don't delete, just "hide". BTW
every medical software in at least Austria MUST do it this way. It's not
permitted to delete data, but hide it is ok.
But therefore we need a better audit system with extension points.
