Alma: Barcode action on receiving continuous items is confusing
- Article Type: General
- Product: Alma
Desired Outcome Goal:
In the "Receive new items" screen I keep getting a message "The item does not have a barcode. Are you sure you want to perform this action?"
How can I get rid of this message?
Procedure:
You can get rid of the confirmation message by doing the following:
1. Go to the Acquisitions Configuration Menu.
2. Select "Receiving Department Validations".
3. Set the check "Check if item has a barcode" to No.
4. Click "Save".
The message won't be displayed to you anymore.
Additional Information
Note that even when "Check if item has a barcode" is set to "Yes", you will see the warning message only if you set "Keep in department" to "No".
