Web Links Table
NOTE
Sierra Access Plus-WebBridge replaces Web links with similar but more powerful functionality. If your organization has acquired Sierra Access Plus-WebBridge, the Web links menu option is not available.
The Web Links table stores parameters which control the display of hyperlinks in the review box of an order record in the Selection Lists function. Hyperlinks only appear for records with a valid ISBN.
You can access the Web Links table via the following menu path:
Admin | Parameters | Acquisitions | Web Links
For information on modifying this table, see Maintaining System Parameter Tables.
