2 Acquisitions 2 Session Agenda Stage 0: Introduction Stage 1: Budgets Stage 2: Vendors Stage 3: Currencies Stage 4: Ordering/Encumbering Budgets/Order Log Stage 5: Items Stage 6: Other Order Methods (EDI/Multi-order) Stage 7: Arriving (Receiving) Stage 8: Invoicing Stage 9: Claiming Stage 10: Services

3 Acquisitions 3 Stage 0 : Introduction

4 Acquisitions 4 In the Acquisitions module, you may choose one of six Navigation Trees: Order Navigation Tree Invoice Navigation Tree Admin Navigation Tree Index Navigation Tree Serial Navigation Tree Search Navigation Tree Note: you may use the direct access options to access titles which have already been managed through this module (i.e. for whom orders were created). Opening the Acquisitions Module Direct access to serial titles Direct access to orders and invoices

5 Acquisitions 5 The Operations Bar (Bottom) Lower-Left: showing server communication. When the client communicates with the server, a red ‘stream’ displays: Lower-Right (right-click) Login, password changing and privileges Menu language setup Connect to a different library Printing options Exit all ALEPH applications Open other modules: Circulation, Cataloging, ILL and ALEPHADM

6 Acquisitions 6 Select Library To connect to an administrative library select: ALEPH/Connect to… You may also connect by right-clicking on the Library icon on the Operations Bar: Look at the Title (Windows) Bar to view the library (and server) you are currently connected to.

7 Acquisitions 7 Importing Tables When you connect to the required library, the system checks to make sure that the module is using the most recent version of the print files. If these have been modified, they will be downloaded to your pc (Depending on setup). You will see a ‘Transfer File’ window appear briefly upon initial connection:

8 Acquisitions 8 Prerequisites for Acquisitions A bibliographic record (in the Cataloging module, or from within Acquisitions) Vendors defined Budgets defined Currencies defined

9 Acquisitions 9 The Acquisitions Process Creating/accessing a bibliographic record Order initiation, budget encumbrance – Creation of items (automatic, optional) Order dispatch – Creation of subscriptions (optional, for serials only) Material arrival registration ( automatic, optional ) Invoice registration and payment Claiming

10 Acquisitions 10 The Process Illustrated

11 Acquisitions 11 Acquisitions Records Order record Vendor Bibliographic record Order record Order Budget Invoice One record can have many orders An order can only have one vendor Many invoices can be registered from a vendor An order can receive many invoices An order can encumber many budgets A budget can pay many invoices; An invoice can be paid by many budgets

12 Acquisitions 12 Acquisitions Order Types Monographs (M),,... Standing orders (O)... Serials (S),...

13 Acquisitions 13 Stage 1 : Budgets

14 Acquisitions 14 Budget Management Budgets are used for encumbering orders and paying invoices. Budgets may be defined as annual, making them available for end-of-year services, such as automatically creating a budget for the new year, and moving last year’s encumbrances to it. Budgets may be associated with specific sublibraries or order units, as well as to specific object codes (e.g. CDs). The library may wish to allocate specific budget handling privileges to specific users or ordering units, due to their confidential nature.

15 Acquisitions 15 Creating a New Budget In the Admin Navigation Tree, create a new budget, using the following budget codes, based on your position number in the class (ZOOLOGY1 for position 1 etc.): ZOOLOGY1-2003 … ZOOLOGY12-2003…

16 Acquisitions 16 Creating a New Budget Needed for this exercise

17 Acquisitions 17 Budget Form - Options Budget Code Annual Budget (in 2.Budget Info 2 tab) If this budget is an annual budget, the budget code should adhere to the following format: BUDGETNAME-YEAR (e.g. ZOOLOGY-2003). Also, the Annual Budget checkbox should be checked. Valid From/To Specify the validity of the budget, normally from the beginning to the end of the fiscal year. Budget Status Set to AC (Active). If NA (Non-active), this budget cannot be used.

18 Acquisitions 18 Budget Form - Options Max. Over/Under Encumbrance This is the maximum amount by which the budget may be encumbered, over or under the estimated budget balance. Max. Over/Under Expenditure This is the maximum amount by which the budget may be expended, over or under the estimated budget balance. Expressed as Percentage the figures written in the above fields will be taken as a percentage of the allocation (and not as a finite amount).

19 Acquisitions 19 Budget Form - Options Limit to ‘Under’ Exp./Enc. The maximum amount by which the budget may be expended/encumbered is under the budget balance by the above amounts. Example: If Max. Over/Under Expenditure = 100, and Limit to ‘Under’ Exp./Enc. is checked, and the budget balance is $1000, then The maximum amount the library can expend is $900.

20 Acquisitions 20 Allocating Funds to a Budget In the Admin Navigation Tree, select your new budget from the Budget List. Open the 4. Transactions tab and allocate funds to this budget. Try also to transfer some amounts to/from other budgets.

21 Acquisitions 21 Checking Budget Transactions From the 4. Transactions tab, you may view budget transactions, displayed chronologically, and filtered by Transaction Type: Initial allocation (ILC) Allocation (ALC) Carryover from last year’s budget (CRO) Transfer (TFR) Encumbrance (ENC) Invoice (INV).

22 Acquisitions 22 Checking Budget Balance In the Admin Navigation Tree, select a new budget from the list of budgets. Open the 3. Balance tab to check budget balances. Actual balance = Total allocations – (paid + unpaid invoices) Free balance = Total allocations – (paid + unpaid invoices + encumbrances)

23 Acquisitions 23 Budget Balances Encumbrance added Invoice registered Invoice paid Allocations/ transfers only

24 Acquisitions 24 Budget Hierarchy You may wish to create a hierarchy of budgets for reporting and display purposes. It will then be possible to view the balances of ‘child’ budgets when viewing the ‘parent’ budget, both in the Acquisitions and Serials Module and in the Invoice Report (acq-10). If you want a budget to have a parent, enter the parent’s code in the Budget Parent field of the 1. Budget Info 1 tab. Optionally, check the Use Parent Budget for Invoice Report checkbox.

25 Acquisitions 25 Viewing Budgets The Budget Filter tab in the upper pane allows retrieval of budgets by various search Navigation Trees and filters: Browse – enter the first letter/s of the budget code Find – enter any string in the budget code Find Exact – enter the exact budget code Wildcard search - B*-2003 will retrieve all budgets that start with the letter B and end with -2003 Budget Group Filters: Sublibrary, Budget Status, Year. View Authorized - display only budgets for which the user has at least one kind of permission.

26 Acquisitions 26 Budget Permissions Budget permissions are defined per staff user regarding specific budget activities: Allocate Transfer Encumber Expend

27 Acquisitions 27 Object Codes Object Codes, found in the 2. Budget Info 2 tab, may be used (optionally) to classify expenditures. Up to 20 object code/s can be assigned to a budget. View the breakdown of expenditure by object codes in the Object Codes tab of the 3. Balance tab:

28 Acquisitions 28 End-of-Year Procedures Open Annual Budgets - Opens next year’s budgets with the Initial Allocation only (optional). Renew Order Encumbrances - Moves encumbrances to the newly-opened budgets*. Transfer Remaining Balance - Moves the balance (positive or negative) to the new budgets. * Two batches: 1.) monograph, 2.) serial

29 Acquisitions 29 Open Annual Budgets To open annual budges for the next budget year:

30 Acquisitions 30 Encumbrance Renewal To re-create encumbrances for a new budget year (optionally, with an estimated increase):

31 Acquisitions 31 Transfer remaining balance Optional: transfer remaining balance (positive, or, optionally, negative) to the new budget.

32 Acquisitions 32 Acquisitions Statistics Produced for a whole year, or for a specific range of dates, filtered by sublibrary, with the following columns: Material Type Month Purchase Method

33 Acquisitions 33 Object Codes If object codes are used, they must also be assigned to each line item of the invoice. The system checks for a match between the line item’s object code and the assigned budget’s object code. If there is no match between the object codes, the INV-type budget transaction will fail.

34 Acquisitions 34 Stage 2 : Vendors

35 Acquisitions 35 Creating a New Vendor In the Admin Navigation Tree, create a new vendor, using the following vendor codes, based on your position number in the class (ZEBRA-BOOKS1 for position 1 etc.): ZEBRA-BOOKS1 … … ZEBRA-BOOKS12

36 Acquisitions 36 Creating a New Vendor Needed for this exercise

37 Acquisitions 37 Creating a New Vendor Needed for this exercise

38 Acquisitions 38 Vendor Form - Options Vendor Code A unique code. Enter vendor’s full name in Vendor Name. Vendor Status Set to AC (Active) or any other option from the drop-down menu. If NA (Non-active), this vendor may not be used. Currency 1 This is the default currency for this vendor. Up to 4 may be entered. They may be switched over at invoice registration.

39 Acquisitions 39 Vendor Form - Options Terms Sign / Terms Percent This is the default discount ‘terms’ offered by the vendor, and will appear in any order, and may be overridden. Order Delivery This is how we normally send the order to the vendor (by a single letter/email or by a list of orders). It may be overridden at the ordering stage.

40 Acquisitions 40 Vendor Form - Options Letter Format The library may set various pre-defined order letter texts. Here you choose what the default one should be for orders. Letter Send Method / List Send Method This is the default mechanism for sending the letter or list to the vendor: Print Email EDI (Electronic Data Interchange).

41 Acquisitions 41 Vendor Form - Options Delivery 1 (ACQ) / Delivery Delay 1 Here you specify the default method the vendor uses to send non-serial material to the library, and the expected time (delay) it takes for it to arrive. There are 3 defaults, for various delivery methods. This is used for calculating when a claim should be sent. Delivery 4 (SER) / Delivery Delay 4 Same as above, but for serial issues. There are 2 defaults.

42 Acquisitions 42 The Vendor Address You may enter up to 5 addresses for a vendor (at least one must be defined as default in the 1. Order Address tab). Select your vendor and click the “Address” button, complete the 1. Order Address tab

43 Acquisitions 43 The Vendor Address From the Vendor Address form, you may also send an email to the vendor.

44 Acquisitions 44 Vendor Sublibrary/Ordering Unit It is possible to limit a vendor to specific sublibraries/ordering units by clicking on the 4. Ordering Units tab in the lower pane:

45 Acquisitions 45 Stage 3 : Currencies

46 Acquisitions 46 Managing Currencies Currency management allows you to: Add or remove currencies (note: you cannot remove a currency already used for an encumbrance) Modify ratios – while keeping the ratio (exchange rate) date Add ratios – changing also the ratio date Delete ratios

47 Acquisitions 47 Checking Currencies In the Admin Navigation Tree, check that the US Dollar (USD) is defined as the ‘Local’ currency (I.e. its exchange rate is defined as 1.00, based on table setup*). *alephe/aleph_start : setenv local_currency

48 Acquisitions 48 Stage 4 : Ordering Encumbering Budgets Order Log

49 Acquisitions 49 Searching for Titles After finding the desired record in Search Navigation Tree, select it in the upper pane; it will be display in the lower pane. Click the “Acq” button to move into Order Navigation Tree. Once in the Order Navigation Tree, the (empty) Order List displays:

50 Acquisitions 50 The Order Index Results sorted by the chosen index Index to use for searching Which starting point on the chosen index Various filters

51 Acquisitions 51 Order Index Notes The Order Index is the best tool for finding orders, due to its wide range of indexes and filters. It can be defaulted to include an individual a user’s preferred filters and indexes (for example, the Sublibrary filter can be defaulted to his/her own sublibrary.) You may use only one of the From Date and the To Date filters. The Order Information and Bibliographic Information will display in the lower pane for each highlighted order.

52 Acquisitions 52 New & Cancelled Order Index Accessible from the Order Index tab. Displays only those Orders with status: NEW, LC (Library Cancelled), VC (Vendor Cancelled) and CNB (Cancelled No Budget). Users can delete an order or a group of orders using the “Delete” or “Delete All” buttons. Deletion depends on authorization.

53 Acquisitions 53 Fast Cataloging This option enables you to briefly catalog a record with minimal information. Some fields may be defined as being ‘Mandatory’ by your system librarian. Select Menu/Orders/Catalog Order from the Main Menu Toolbar.Once you complete this form and click “OK”, the Order List for the new title displays, allowing you to create an order for this new record.

54 Acquisitions 54 Placing an Order Using Fast Cataloging, create a monograph order for 2 copies of a title of your choice, using the vendor record you have already created. Complete the form and note any error messages (text bubble) the system displays:

55 Acquisitions 55 Order Type Before a new order is added, you must choose a value in the Order Type window. There are three types: Monograph Serial Standing Order. There are slight differences between the three types in the Order Form, related to claim period definition. Optionally, you may define the order number counter on that form. Various counters may be defined by the system librarian.

56 Acquisitions 56 The Order Form After you have clicked “Add” in the Order List in the upper pane, the Order Form displays: Needed for this exercise (some fields are completed automatically).

57 Acquisitions 57 The Order Form Needed for this exercise (some fields are completed automatically).

58 Acquisitions 58 Differences Between Order Types Serials Standing Order Monograph

59 Acquisitions 59 Order Form - Options Order Number 2 / 3 Additional order numbers (not system-defined). Status Date Date when the Order Status has changed. Order Date Date when the order was sent. Sublibrary / Order Unit Depending on the library’s setup, one of these should be defined per order. Items created for this order will ‘belong’ to this sublibrary/order unit.

60 Acquisitions 60 Order Form - Options Rush Check this box for a rush note in the order slip, and for a pop-up reminder appearing when arrival is registered. Claim Date This field is left zeroed when creating the order. It will be filled with the relevant date once the order has been sent. Batch Claiming Check this box if this order is going to take part in the automatic claiming service. Otherwise, you’ll have to claim manually if needed.

61 Acquisitions 61 Order Form - Options Number of Units / Unit Price You only need to fill these two fields – the system will calculate the Total, List and Final Prices, and the Local Price automatically. Create Item Records This box may be checked if that was defined in the setup. You may override that default. Save Def. Click this button before clicking Add, so that your order parameters will be saved (locally) as defaults for your next orders (E.g. sublibrary, material type).

62 Acquisitions 62 The Order List After you have clicked “Add” In the Order Form, the order should display in the Order List: From here you may add new orders, duplicate existing ones, print copies, delete and send cancellation slips and send orders to vendors.

63 Acquisitions 63 The Order’s Action In 2. General tab you may define possible order actions: None - no action Send Directly - the item will be sent directly to the specified patron’s address Create Hold Request - for the specified patron (only for monograph orders, and only when an automatic item is created) Send Mail

64 Acquisitions 64 Order Units The Order Unit is an acquisitions unit within the library. It can be either a specially-defined order unit, or a normal sublibrary. Libraries that have chosen to work with Order Units should also complete this field in the 2. General tab:

65 Acquisitions 65 Sending Orders to the Vendor After the order is created, it needs to be sent to the vendor. There are three methods: 1. ‘One of’LE (tter) printed or emailed 2. In a listLI (st)printed or emailed 3. By EDI*ED (I)sent by ftp *Electronic Data Interchange

66 Acquisitions 66 Sending Orders to the Vendor When you click “Send” in the Order List, one of the following will happen: If the Order Delivery Type is ‘LE’, the order will be printed or emailed. If it’s ‘LI’, then the order will wait until the service ‘Send list of orders to a vendor’ (acq-14) is run. If it’s ‘ED’, the order will wait until the service ‘Send EDI orders’ (edi-11) is run.

67 Acquisitions 67 Sending Orders to the Vendor You can click on the “Print/Cancel” button in the Order List to print the order details before sending it. This window also offers the option to send a cancellation slip to the vendor:

68 Acquisitions 68 The Order Status The Order Status changes automatically as the order goes through various stages. It may also be changed manually. Each order has the status NEW when opened and saved. Once the “Send” button is clicked, the status may become –SV (Sent to Vendor), if the Order Delivery Method is LE, or –RSV (Ready to Send to Vendor), if the Order Delivery Method is LI or ED. Once the batch order-sending service is run, the status will change to SV.

69 Acquisitions 69 The Order Status If there are budget problems, or if no budget was selected, the Status becomes DNB (Delayed, No Budget). When the order is fully arrived and paid, the status will become CLS (Closed). If the order is cancelled (Print/Cancel button), the status will change to LC (Library Cancelled). Various other statuses may be applied manually: –WP (Waiting for Processing) –QSV (Query before Sending to Vendor) –VC (Vendor Cancelled).

70 Acquisitions 70 Encumbrance Defined To encumber a budget is to “set aside” (allocate) the estimated price of an order. The encumbered amount will remain part of the budget, until a Line Item (part of the General Invoice) is registered against it. The original encumbrance (an estimation only) is likely to be different than the actual price paid for the order eventually.

71 Acquisitions 71 Encumbering a Budget Now you should make sure your budget has sufficient funds in it to cover this order. If not, allocate some more (remember: we are not in the real world yet...) Encumber your budget (ZOOLOGYx-2003) with the order amount. There are two ways of doing it: Fill the Encumber Budget field on tab 4 of the Order Form*, or Open the Encumber node of the Order Navigation Tree. * Viewable only for a new orders

72 Acquisitions 72 The Encumbrance Form Encumbrance = Estimated Price Local Price always calculated In this example: Local Currency - NIS Order Currency - USD

73 Acquisitions 73 More on Encumbering The encumbrance only comes into effect in the budget once the order was sent. Encumbrance-type transactions (ENC) may be viewed by opening the Encumber node on the Order Navigation Tree, and clicking the “Balance” button. Open the Transactions tab. Encumbrance-type transactions are kept in the order’s currency, but the local currency may also display: Local Currency Vendor Currency

74 Acquisitions 74 The Order Log Each step of the process is recorded in the Order Log. Access it from the Order Log node of the Orders Navigation Tree. Transaction Filters Transactions

75 Acquisitions 75 The Order Log The system adds pre-defined transactions automatically, however you may add manual ones. Click “Add” to add manual transactions to the Order Log. There are 3 manually-entered transaction types, available from the drop-down menu: Free-text transactions (transaction type 00) Free-text message to the vendor (type 99) Registering the vendor’s reply (type 98)

76 Acquisitions 76 The Order Log If you define an Action Date, it may be useful to produce an Order Log Report (acq-22) regularly.

77 Acquisitions 77 Tracking Orders There are three main methods of tracking orders: Direct Search for a specific order by various indexes such as Order Number or ISBN The Search Navigation Tree – keyword searching/browsing for titles. The Order Index Navigation Tree

78 Acquisitions 78 Stage 5 : Items

79 Acquisitions 79 Items for Monograph Orders The system will automatically create an item for each unit ordered (if such was the default setup). The Item Status and Item Process Status for ordered items are determined in advance (in tables). The Collection may also be defined during the order creation stage.

80 Acquisitions 80 Create Items for Monograph Order Items that were created during the ordering process can be viewed and modified by clicking the Items/ Subscriptions node of the Order Navigation Tree. If this were a Serials (S) type order, clicking this button will allow for the creation and viewing of serial Subscriptions.

81 Acquisitions 81 Stage 6 : Other Order Methods (EDI/Multi-order)

82 Acquisitions 82 Multi-ordering Scenario: A library wishes to send multiple monograph orders based on imported publisher’s Bibliographic data. Solution: Import BIB data, batch create ADM and order records and create one order for all.

83 Acquisitions 83 Multi-ordering Workflow: Upload a file of records received from a vendor into the database. Run the acq-24 service with an imported file to create ADM records and monograph orders. Open the Multi Order Index, search for multi-orders and select requested titles. Fill in the Multi Order Form and send the order to the vendor. Fill in the Multi Item Form (optional).

84 Acquisitions 84 The Multi Order Index Access the Multi Order Index from Menu/Orders/Multi Order Index. The Order Number 2 field is common to all these orders.

85 Acquisitions 85 Multi Order Forms Multi Order Form Multi Items Form

86 Acquisitions 86 Stage 7 : Arriving (Receiving)

87 Acquisitions 87 Material Arrival The system can be configured to register arrival automatically, whenever a Line Item is registered. You may override this, in case you wish to register partial arrival, for example.

88 Acquisitions 88 Material Arrival To register arrival, go to the Arrival node of the Order Navigation Tree. The Arrival List displays in the upper pane. Register partial arrival - one item out of the two we have ordered:

89 Acquisitions 89 Stage 8 : Invoicing

90 Acquisitions 90 Invoicing When a General Invoice is received from the vendor, it must first be entered in ALEPH, followed by registering its Line Items (each representing a single order). You may start with the Invoice Search to register a new General Invoice. Enter the Vendor code and new invoice number in the two search fields

91 Acquisitions 91 General Invoice Once you confirm this is a new invoice, the General Invoice form will opened. Complete and click “Update” to register it: Needed for this exercise

92 Acquisitions 92 The General Invoice Form - Options Explicit Ratio Enter here a different exchange rate than the one currently stored in the system. Net Amount Copy here the invoice’s net amount, before additional costs. Shipment/Overhead/Insurance Amount Copy into these fields any additional costs listed in the invoice. Discount Amount Copy here any discounts listed in the invoice.

93 Acquisitions 93 The General Invoice Form - Options Total Amount The system calculates into this field the total of Net Amount + any additional Amounts (extras). Click Refresh to check that calculation. VAT Percent / VAT Amount Once you enter a VAT percent, the system calculates the amount. VAT per Line Item Check this box if you wish to enter an individual VAT rate into each Line Item.

94 Acquisitions 94 Adding Line Items Once the General Invoice is registered, you next need to register the Line Items. Open the Line Items node of the Invoice Navigation Tree, click “Add”, enter the Order Number (or search in the Order Index) and complete the Line Item form, based on your order. The Estimated Price and the Number of Units are entered by default from the order, so you only need to copy the Net Amount from the vendor’s invoice. You don’t need to calculate the additional (added) amounts, as they will be added, pro rata, to each of the Line Items.

95 Acquisitions 95 Line Items At this stage, it is possible to review the budget/s allocated to the order, and to change it/them. Click the “Budgets” button in the Line Item Form to view/reassign budgets. You may view all the order-related information in the 2. Order Info tab of the lower pane, divided into 5 sub-tabs:

96 Acquisitions 96 Accessing Invoices Invoices may be accessed in two ways: From the Invoice search on the top bar In the Order Navigation Tree, from the Invoice node. Invoices can be handled when in Invoice Navigation Tree.

97 Acquisitions 97 Paying the Invoice To register payment, the Payment tab in the General Invoice form has to be completed, changing the Status to ‘P’ (paid). Other intermediary statues are also available. The payment of an invoice zeroes the encumbrance, and means that the Total Amount listed in the Line Item is taken ‘for good’ from the budget (Expended).

98 Acquisitions 98 Invoice payment status Standard payment statuses are: N - not ready to be paid R - ready to be paid Y - payment authorization given P - paid More payment statuses can be set up in a table, which also determines the default payment status when a general invoice is created, and which payment status will cause the invoice to ‘freeze’.

99 Acquisitions 99 Batch Payment Registration If actual payment is done elsewhere, in a finance department for example, a batch service exists for reporting, and/or changing the Payment Status of a group of invoices (acq-10):

100 Acquisitions 100 Stage 9 : Claiming

101 Acquisitions 101 Claiming Claiming late material can be done in one of two ways: Running a batch process to send a number of claims to a vendor (acq-11, -12 and -19). Claiming individually from within a single order.

102 Acquisitions 102 Manual Claiming To claim manually, open the Claims node of the Order Navigation Tree. The Claim List shows the claim history of the order. Click the “New Claim” button, and complete the Claim Expand tab:

103 Acquisitions 103 Registering Vendor Replies The OrderClaimList tab in the upper pane can also display replies received from vendors, side by side with the claims. Register the vendor correspondence (Choose between free-text and pre-defined codes from a drop-down menu).

104 Acquisitions 104 Serial Claiming Claiming for serial items is performed within the Serials Application Window. Claiming for serial orders for which no items have arrived is accomplished by running the acq-19 service (Claim report for serial orders).

105 Acquisitions 105 Standing Order Claiming The basis for batch claiming of standing order (O) type orders is the Max. Arrival Days parameter on the Order Form (3. Vendor tab). Enter here the number of days that normally pass between each shipment of a series volume, based on experience.

106 Acquisitions 106 Stage 10 : Services

107 Acquisitions 107 Acquisitions Services All Acquisitions-related services are offered under Menu/ Services, arranged in groups. Access to services is limited by authorization.

108 Acquisitions 108 Example of a Batch Service Budget Summary (acq-16 ): The structure of most services is similar: An output file and various filters and switches. Services may be scheduled to run at regular intervals by the system librarian.

109 Acquisitions 109 The Budget Summary Report (Detail)

110 Acquisitions 110 Batch Retrieval of Records General Retrieval Form (acq-02-01) The following are examples of more specific reports that may be designed by your library: Partially-filled orders (acq-02-02) Monograph orders - status NEW (acq-02-03) Orders with no invoice (acq-02-04) By order status (acq-02-05) Orders cancelled by vendor (acq-02-06) Printing in a customized report is handled by another service...

111 Acquisitions 111 Printing Retrieval Results The Print Acquisitions Records (acq-03) Service is responsible for printing the retrieved results in a tailored report:

112 Acquisitions 112 Other Useful Acquisitions Services Update local price of budget transaction (acq-08) Invoice report (acq-10) Claim report for standing orders (acq-11) Claim report and letters for monograph orders (acq-12) Send outgoing EDI messages (edi-11) Send list of orders to a vendor (acq-14) Budget summary (acq-16) List of orders per budget (acq-17) Upload currency ratios (acq-20)
