How School Leaders Can Search and Filter Deleted Records in the Bin

Browsing through dozens of deleted drafts and test papers to find one specific timetable is frustrating and time-consuming.

Cluttered trash directories slow down critical record recovery

When an institution generates hundreds of test drafts, finding one specific accidental deletion in a flat trash list wastes valuable minutes.

Utilize full-text search and category filtering in your recycle bin

  1. Open the institutional Recycle Bin in your administration portal.

  2. Type keywords or batch names into the search bar (e.g., 'Physics Timetable').

  3. Filter by category: Batches, Tests, Assignments, Timetables, or Custom Fields.

  4. Sort by 'Newest Deleted' to bring your most recent accidental deletions to the top.

Put it into practice

Example: Searching for a deleted chemistry practical batch

An admin types 'Chemistry Lab' into the bin search bar, instantly isolating the deleted lab section among fifty items and restoring it in seconds.

Worth checking first

  • Search queries check titles, subject names, and author metadata.
  • Category tabs isolate specific operational modules with one click.
