[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Circulation and cataloguing questions

[Deanna Frazee]

Hi Dorryce,

 

Just yesterday I managed to create a listing of unfulfilled holds using
the reporting feature.  I would be happy to send you the details of how
I created it, if it would help.  A more elegant solution can be found
using this SQL report from the docuwiki:
http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-reports:hold_repo
rts&s[]=holds&s[]=report
<http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-reports:hold_rep
orts&s%5b%5d=holds&s%5b%5d=report> .

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Circulation and cataloguing questions

 

Hello all,

 

We're new to Evergreen 1.6 and I wondered if there is a way to easily
view holds in (ie, items in the catalogue that patrons have placed
requests for ) for which items are not yet checked in, ie, unfulfilled
holds. I understand the hold is triggered when the requested item is
checked back in, and naturally we can print out a pull list for the
items requested that are on the shelf, but it's the unfulfilled holds
that have us stumped. One of the purposes we use this for is to purchase
additional copies if the item is in high demand. (typically we only
purchase 1 copy and wait and see)

 

The other question relates to editing a batch of records in Cataloguing.
I find that I have to re-execute a search after completing edits on a
record and saving. Normally, I would expect after saving a record, I
would be returned to the original results list. Am I missing something
in the navigation? 

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Regards,
