Serials Workflow Permissions
The following table lists serials tasks, the Polaris permissions required to do the tasks, the administrative levels at which they can be set, and the subsystems where the permissions are located. Some permissions required for Serials processing are also used in other subsystems. For example, the Acquisitions permission Create a bib record from acquisitions and serials: Allow is used in both subsystems.
Tip:
Not all permissions are specific to Serials. There are other permissions which apply to Serials, but are not configured within Serials, such as the Cataloging permission Override invalid item barcode message: Allow and the Acquisitions permission Create a bib record from acquisitions and serials: Allow.
Note:
To modify Polaris Administration profiles and parameters, you must have the following permissions:
Access administration: Allow
Modify parameters: Allow
Modify profiles: Allow
