    Intransit alert

    If the item’s home location is not the one it’s being returned at then an INTRANSIT alert will be displayed. For example:


    The item can then be set aside. This will also be shown in the recovery report, for example:

    Successful Transactions: 1

    1) Returned item:A30040822B

       ...Please return to Beaumont Library

    Reservation alert

    If an item that’s been reserved is returned then the INTRANSIT alert will not be displayed, only the ORSV alert. This should avoid any confusion, for example, in cases where the item is being returned at location A, the home location is B, and the item has been reserved and is to be picked up from location C.

     

    The pickup location will be shown in the recovery report, for example:

    Successful Transactions: 1

    1) Returned item:003496738

       ...Please return to Bridge Library
