    Question

    Is there a way to mass-populate a default PIN for patrons, such as using the last 4 digits of their phone number or barcode number, etc.?

    Answer

    Patron Pins can be populated using the XML Patron Update program, PpatronImpX, which is documented in the Technical User's Guide and uses the Patron Schema found on the Developer Network.

    Additional Information

    You can also set a universal default PIN (e.g., "12345") in the webvoyage.properties file.  See: Enabling patron PIN for Voyager WebVoyage
