    When you migrate from Voyager to Alma it may be helpful to know your Voyager Circ, Acq and Cat Happening Locations.

    The following three queries can be run using Voyager Prepackaged Access Reports.

    Cat Happening Locations:

    SELECT CAT_POLICY_LOCS.CATALOGING_LOCATION, CAT_POLICY_LOCS.LOCATION_ID, LOCATION.LOCATION_NAME
    FROM CAT_POLICY_LOCS INNER JOIN LOCATION ON CAT_POLICY_LOCS.LOCATION_ID = LOCATION.LOCATION_ID
    WHERE (((CAT_POLICY_LOCS.CATALOGING_LOCATION)="Y"));

    Acq Happening Locations:

    SELECT ACQ_LOCATIONS.ORDER_LOC, ACQ_LOCATIONS.LOCATION_ID, LOCATION.LOCATION_NAME
    FROM ACQ_LOCATIONS INNER JOIN LOCATION ON ACQ_LOCATIONS.LOCATION_ID = LOCATION.LOCATION_ID
    WHERE (((ACQ_LOCATIONS.ORDER_LOC)="Y"));

    Circ Happening Locations:

    SELECT CIRC_POLICY_LOCS.CIRC_LOCATION, CIRC_POLICY_LOCS.LOCATION_ID, LOCATION.LOCATION_NAME
    FROM CIRC_POLICY_LOCS INNER JOIN LOCATION ON CIRC_POLICY_LOCS.LOCATION_ID = LOCATION.LOCATION_ID
    WHERE (((CIRC_POLICY_LOCS.CIRC_LOCATION)="Y"));

    For other queries that may be useful, see my "Surviving Almanado: tips for a successful pre-implementation" presentation's Accompanying Materials.
