Creating Checkin Records
To create a checkin record:
- Retrieve or create the bibliographic record to which you want to attach the new record.
- In the Summary tab:
- Choose Checkin from the View drop-down list.
- Choose Attach New Checkin.
The system creates a tab for the new record and switches to that tab.
- Follow the steps described in Entering Data into New Records.
- After entering data in the fixed- and variable-length fields, Sierra adds the checkin record to the database and then prompts you to create a checkin card for the record.
- After creating the checkin card, select the Record tab if you want to review the new checkin record.
- To save the new record, choose Save on the toolbar. Or, to save all new attached records, select the Summary tab and choose Save All on the toolbar.
