Introduction

The Cleanse Data / Anonymise People search allows you to search for organisations and people in order to cleanse or anonymise them.

  • Cleanse - To remove data, from individual fields, that is no longer required. This will not mark the record as anonymised. This is used for when certain services no longer have the requirement to keep this information about it's service users.
  • Anonymise - This will mark the record as anonymised. It requires a field set that is configured for identifiable information fields (Names, Addresses etc).
Note: At present information in 'details of contact' or 'further actions required' in the Record A Contact fields will not be cleansed or anonymised.  This will however be a feature available in a future version).
