Renew Privilege Helper

This helper displays when the user’s privilege is set to expire within 30 days.

To renew a user’s privilege

Click the Renew Privilege helper.

Click Extend Privilege to extend privileges depending on the setting of the Privilege Renewal Date option in the helper properties.

–

If you selected the Normal Privilege Date option, the user’s privilege expiration date is extended automatically based on the associated User Profile Wizard policy.

–

If you selected the Special Privilege Date option, the Renew Privilege window displays for you to select a privilege expiration date. You must type an override code to select a special privilege date.

Or, click Cancel to end the transaction for the current user without renewing the user’s privileges.

If you extend the user’s library privileges using this helper, the Privilege for [User Name] dialog box displays the new privilege expiration date and the number of checkouts permitted for the duration of the privilege period.

Important Considerations When Using this Helper

•

The Renew Privilege helper must be selected in the wizard properties for this helper to automatically display when the user’s privilege is about to expire.

•

If a user’s privileges expired before the current date, you can renew the user’s privileges only if the Extend User’s Library Privilege property is selected in the wizard properties. If this property is cleared, you will not be able to renew the user’s expired privileges during the current wizard process.

•

If the user has a credit account and policies are configured to automatically pay privilege fees with money from the credit account, fees created when renewing a user’s privilege may be paid automatically with funds from the user’s credit account.
