Checking in Selected Issues Using Serial E-Checkin

You can check in only selected issues on an Electronic Packing Slip (EPS); you do not need to check in all issues on an EPS simultaneously.

To check in only selected issues:

  1. Choose Serials ECheckin from the Function drop-down list.
  2. Choose a journal type ("ELECTRONIC", "PRINT", or "ALL") from the Journal Type drop-down menu.
  3. Select an EPS. The issues in the EPS display in the lower part of the screen.
  4. Choose "ALL" or "Processing" from the drop-down menu to view all issues in the EPS or only those yet to be checked in.
  5. Check the Create Item or Print Labels check boxes to create items or print spine, pocket and routing labels.

If the vendor includes barcodes in an EPS and you check the Create Item check box, the barcodes are automatically inserted in the BARCODE field of the item record.

  1. Select the issues to be checked in.
  2. Choose E-Checkin.

The selected issues are checked in. The checkin records associated with the issues are updated and the Status for the boxes reads "ARRIVED".
