Set In-Transit Slip Options

To set information options for in-transit, in-transit for hold slips, or combination in-transit and pickup slips:

Note:
When a library uses a combined in-transit slip, the library’s in-transit settings determine how information displays on the slip. For example, when an item is scanned at the original library, a combined slip prints containing the pickup branch name and the library name, in a format set per the original library’s in-transit settings. The patron name and other contents for the pickup slip are determined per the pickup branch’s setting.

  1. In the Administration Explorer tree view, open the Parameters folder for the organization, and select the Patron Services tabbed page in the details view.
  2. Double-click In-transit slip options. The In-Transit Slip Options dialog box opens.

  1. To include a requesting patron’s name on the slip, select (check) Print patron name on In-transit-hold slip.
  2. To include a requesting patron’s barcode on the in-transit for hold slip, select (check) Print patron barcode on In-transit-hold slip.

Note:
For the patron’s barcode to display on the in-transit for hold slip, the pickup branch must have Print x digits of the patron barcode selected (checked) in Hold Pickup Slip Options. See Set hold slip options.

  1. (Optional) Select Print library full name, Print library abbreviation, or both to print the parent library of the destination branch. These options apply to all in-transit slips.
  2. For the destination branch name, select Print branch full name or Print branch abbreviation. This option applies to all in-transit slips. You must select one option.
  3. To control the length of the in-transit slip, select or type the number (0-999) of trailing blank lines to add to the slip.
  4. Click OK.

At each staff client workstation, you must enable the slip from each workform that generates the slip. Setting Up Receipt Printing from Workforms.
