Instructions

Subjects of Alma notifications may be set by using the General Configuration menu > Letter Emails, and configuring the ‘subject’ line.

 

When configuring multiple Overdue and Lost Loan Profiles to use different notification types, you can configure the ./xsl/letters/call_template/header.xsl file (in the Customize Letters option of the General Configuration menu) to be sensitive to the notification type.

Example

For example, to support a different subject for OverdueNotificationType2 notifications , change the below OTB :

 

  <xsl:for-each select="notification_data/general_data">

                <td>

                                <h1><xsl:value-of select="letter_name"/></h1>

                </td>

                <td align="right">

                                <xsl:value-of select="current_date"/>

                </td>

  </xsl:for-each>

 

</tr>

 

To:

 

<xsl:for-each select="notification_data/general_data">

<xsl:choose>

<xsl:when test="/notification_data/notification_type = 'OverdueNotificationType2'">

<td>

                                <h1>State Library of Queensland - Final Overdue Notice</h1>

                </td>

</xsl:when>

<xsl:otherwise>

                <td>

                                <h1><xsl:value-of select="letter_name"/></h1>

                </td>

</xsl:otherwise>

</xsl:choose>

                <td align="right">

                                <xsl:value-of select="current_date"/>

                </td>

</xsl:for-each>

 

</tr>
