Preventing hold-request slip printing
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20
Desired Outcome Goal:
Prevent printing of hold-request slip, that is, use the "no-print" option for the hold request slip. {The hold request slip is generated when an item is ready to go on the hold shelf (most of the time when it has been trapped during return).}
Procedure:
Type “NO-PRINT” in print.ini, column 6.2. {Column 6.2 is reserved for the Device ID of the item slip printout and column 6.1 is for the Device ID of the patron (letter) printout.}
Additional Information
In circ\tab\print.ini
HoldLetter01 00 N P holdltr.prn [LETTER] [SLIP]
or
ReturnHold01 00 N P rethold.prn [LETTER] [SLIP]
If both lines exist, then ReturnHold controls printing/emailing behavior upon item return when it is on hold.
The created files \circ\files\xxx50\print\holdltr.prn respectively \circ\files\xxx50\print\rethold.prn contain both printouts (the letter and the slip).
