    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Primo

    Desired Outcome Goal:
    Change how availability information is displayed for a particular delivery status

    Procedure:
    1. Navigate to the Calculated Availability Text code table:
    Primo Home > Advanced Configuration > All Code Tables > Sub System: Delivery > Calculated Availability Text

    2. Determine which availability status should be edited.
    -Each delivery status has two lines:

    default.delivery.code.{status} -This line controls the availability text
    default.delivery.class.{status} -This line controls the color of the availability dot

    3. To edit the text, update the code table for the appropriate institution and edit the Availability Text/Color for default.delivery.code.{status}
    -Placeholders can be used to display library names:

    {1} – use this placeholder to insert a single location in the calculated availability text. The system will attempt to display the most relevant location

    {0} – use this placeholder insert the user's institution in the text.

    5. To edit the availability dot, update the code table for the appropriate institution and edit the Availability Text/Color for default.delivery.class.{status}

    6. Save and Deploy the code table.
