Checking In

Select the Check in app.

    • "In transit" pop up: May appear when an item belongs to a different service point location than it was returned to
      • Norlin Services: If this pop up appears, deselect “Print slip” and click Close 
      • Branches & Norlin Processing: If this pop up appears, click Close, select receipt printer and Print
      • Once the item arrives at the service point location where it belongs, it must be checked in again to change item status from "in transit" to "available"

Prior to backdating a returned item, please view the loan on the User record.
  • Please review an item’s Due date and Status prior to making any changes. Write down the due date and time.
  • We backdate items when there has been a delay in processing returns (Ex: holidays, breaks, etc.) or a library error. We can also backdate recently overdue tech items to their due date/time as a courtesy. 
  • We DO NOT backdate BILLED items. 
  • Please DO NOT backdate to a date before an item was due or was checked out (most relevant to our hourly loaned materials).

 

Backdating
