Unlocking an effective date

When an effective date passes, BriteCore automatically locks it to prevent changes that create a large impact on operations. To make changes to past effective dates, you must unlock the effective date.

Important: Only change past effective dates after you have completed thorough testing and received permission from the client. 

Unlock an effective date

To unlock an effective date:

1. In the client’s database, select effective_dates.
2. Navigate to the effective date you want to unlock, and then set the effective_dates.overrideLock to 1.
   
   Example: effective_dates.overrideLock == 1
   
3. To relock the effective date, set the effective_dates.overrideLock back to 0.
   
   Example: effective_dates.overrideLock == 0
