public interface Voidable
extends OpenmrsObject

In OpenMRS, data are rarely fully deleted (purged) from the system; rather, they are either voided or retired. When data can be removed (effectively deleted from the user's perspective), then they are voidable. Voided data are no longer valid and references from other non-voided data are not valid. For example, when duplicate patient records are merged, the record that is not kept is voided (invalidated). Unlike Retireable, voiding data invalidates any data referencing them. e.g., when a patient is voided, all observations for that patient must be voided as well.
