Send Overdue Message to Resource Sharing Borrowing Partner | No | Fulfillment |
Labels lending requests as Overdue when a request’s due date arrives and the request's status is not one of the following: Deleted, Canceled, Rejected, Expired, Returned by Partner. The job is working with Email, ISO, SLNP and NcipP2P partners. The job automatically issues notices to borrowing libraries when a lending request is marked as Overdue. When working with an ISO or ISO18626 partner, the job updates the borrowing institution with the request’s Overdue status. If the partner has defined a "Resending Overdue Days Interval" in the Parameters tab, overdue messages are resent every configured number of days (for the parameter, see ISO Parameters). If an active borrowing request cannot be found, the overdue message is only sent once, rather than each time the job runs.
The letter that is sent to the borrowing institution is the Borrower Overdue Email letter. This letter must be active for overdue messages to be sent successfully to NcipP2P partners. |
Expired Resource Sharing Requests | Yes | Fulfillment | Checks for resource sharing requests that expired. The expiration date was automatically communicated by the borrower in the borrowing request. The request expires on the lender side, and the borrower is automatically notified about the expiration. In response, the borrower activates the next partner in the rota.
This job runs on requests that have an expiration date in the past, and which contain one of the following statuses:
When the job runs and detects expired requests:
When the borrower receives the Expired ISO message, it activates the next partner in the rota. If there is no additional partner in the rota, the request is expired.

Metadata Import w/ <import profile> | Yes | Import |
Imports bibliographic records for import profiles that use FTP. When the OAI Import Profile fails due to socket timeout exception, the system loads into Rapido the number of records that it was able to import up to the moment of exception. If reconnect attempts are unsuccessful, the system saves the resumption token and attempts to use it in the next session of the job, resuming import from the resumption token. |
