Count of Transactions Loaded Tab
The Count of Transactions Loaded tab contains fields that are used to customize the information about scanner transactions that is printed in report output. This tab may contain any of the following fields.
| • | Check Misordered |
| • | Check Unknown |
| • | Transaction Type |
| • | Use Short Form |
Select this check box if you want to check for misordered scanned items in the scanned batch. If scanned item IDs are not in correct shelving key order, the bibliographic information for the item not in the correct shelving order is printed with bibliographic information for neighboring items shelved immediately before and after the incorrectly ordered item in the scanned batch, for easy shelf-identification. By default, this check box is selected.
The copy number is ignored when misordered copies are identified, so a copy that is out of order within its own call number is not listed. These items can be output in the short format.
Select this check box if you want to check for unknown scanned items in the scanned batch. If item IDs are present in the scanned batch, but cannot be found in the catalog, the system reads the input file of scanned items, checks these items against the library’s item file by item ID, and outputs any non-matching item IDs and the item ID of the last matching scanned record. The unknown item ID is printed, as well as the author, title, and call number of the adjacent known item in the scanned batch. This check box is selected by default.
The transaction type selected indicates how the data obtained from the scanner will be processed.
| • | Inventory (RFID) processes inventory data collected using an RFID wand. This process provides a list to work from when conducting missing item searches and getting shelf items in order. The required data format for inventory is as follows: |
(Station policy)|(inventory date)|(item ID)
For example:
SCANNER|201010311345|123456789
| • | Item Use (PocketCirc) updates items that have been used and left on reading tables before they are reshelved. Only a log indicating the number of items used is provided when this option is selected. The required data format for materials scanned using PocketCirc is as follows: |
6|(Station policy)|(inventory date)|(item ID)
For example:
6|SCANNER|201010311345|123456789
| • | Mixed (MobileCirc and PocketCirc) performs Inventory and Item Use functions within the same batch of scanned data. |
The required data format is as follows:
7|(Station policy)|(inventory date)|(item ID)
For example:
7|SCANNER|201010311345|123456789
Note: If you are using MobileCirc or PocketCirc to scan data, you must always select the Mixed option.
Select this check box if you would like to use the short output format for items that were scanned out of order. The short format includes the call number, copy number and barcode only. By default, this check box is cleared, and complete title information prints in the report output.
