Using Databases with ID Works Projects 99
ID Works Standard and Enterprise Version 5 Administrator’s Guide
and delete records can be enabled or disabled. See “User Privileges”
on page 149.
Any privilege restrictions set outside of the ID Works application
(such as database security) cannot be bypassed.
You can also use the Edit Production Form Properties dialog box to
ensure that database records are updated by selecting the Save On
Print option in the Automatic Actions area. Using this feature also
eliminates the need for an explicit “save” operation for each card
printed.
Database Design Considerations
Because ID Works applications are often only a part of an
organization’s overall security and identification system, it is not
possible to cover in this document all the ways ID Works software
might interact with your organization’s database.
Understanding Database Errors
If database errors occur when using the Production application, the
error messages will come directly from the database program. ID
Works software does not filter or change the messages in any way.
You may want to provide your Production operators with user
documentation for your database product or develop your own error
recovery document.
