Bound-with Wizard Properties

You can change certain system settings for the Bound-with wizard using the Set Properties window. The Bound-with wizard allows you to set the following properties.

Display Property Page

You can choose when to display the Bound-with wizard’s Set Properties window by selecting one of the following options.

Wizard Startup – Displays the Set Properties window the first time you access the wizard until you end the wizard session or log off the client.
Never – Does not display the Set Properties window the first time you access the wizard. If Never is selected and you want to open the Set Properties window, point to the wizard’s toolbar button, right-click, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu.

Depending on the value selected in Display Property Page, defaults may appear as the first step of the wizard. Property values that are changed in the first step of a wizard are retained only until the right-click method is used to set properties.

Behavior

On the Behavior tab, the following properties appear.

Search Library Preferences

The Search Library List Type property allows the SirsiDynix Symphony administrator to control what libraries are accessible in the Search Library list when searching items. The following selections are available. Search by Library is the default option.

Search by Library — If you click this option, the Search Library List property becomes active. The libraries presented in this property list are defined in Library policies. (This option does not refer to the Search Library policies.)

From the drop-down list, select one of the following Search Library lists.

All – Includes all libraries on the system
Acquisition Display Libs – Includes the libraries defined in the Library policy’s Acquisitions Display Libraries attribute
Bill Display Libs – Includes the libraries defined in the Library policy’s Bill Display Libraries attribute
Circulation Display Libs – Includes the libraries defined in the Library policy’s Circulation Display Libraries attribute (which is the default)
User Display Libs – Includes the libraries defined in the Library policy’s User Display Libraries attribute
Search by Search Library Group — If you click this option, the Search Library list will be built from values in the Search Library policies. (This option does not refer to the Library Group policies.)
Search by Library or Search Library Group — If you click this option, all libraries on your system and all Search Library policies will be included in the Search Library list. The libraries and Search Library policies will be inter-filed alphabetically. (This option does not refer to the Library Group policies.)

If your search does not produce any hits, you will be sent to a browse window, and the browse search results will no longer be filtered by your library search selection.

Select Behavior

Under Select Behavior, select or clear the following check boxes.

Add Call Number – Allows the addition of call numbers to the new title and call number through the Add New Call Number helper. You must select this option if you want to use the Prompt for Library When Adding New Call Number option.
Prompt for Library When Adding New Call Number – Allows you to change the library of the new call number.

Defaults

On the Defaults tab, select the following options.

Search Preferences

The following search preferences are available.

Type – Select the default search type that will be used when you start the wizard. Options are typically Keyword, Browse, and Exact.
Index – Select the default search index that will be used when you start the wizard. The search indexes that display are wizard-specific.
Library – Select the default search library. If the Library field contains a specific library name, then only item records for that particular library are searched. If the Library field contains the value Full access to all libraries, the item records of all libraries are displayed.

Call Number/Item Default Values

Select the default Library you want to use when creating a new call number with no items using the Add a New Call Number helper.

Item Tree Defaults

This property controls the display of the item tree in both the search window View pane and on the detailed display screen’s Call Number/Item tab for multilibrary systems. Choose one of the following options.

Item Tree Display Expanded – Displays item tree with all call numbers expanded.
Item Tree Display Collapsed – Displays item tree with the user’s library call numbers expanded and all others collapsed.

Additional call numbers that do not belong to the user’s library may be expanded, as follows.

If the user reaches the Call Number/Item tab by way of clicking on a current title.
If the user reaches the Call Number/Item tab by way of selecting a different call number or item from the View pane.
If a call number or item is a default item.
If a new call number or item is added.
If a library does not own any call numbers or items for a title, the first title that displays is expanded by default.
