1. Quick Shipping of Resource Sharing Items
Moshe Shechter | Alma Product Manager

2. Shipping Resource Sharing Items
Shipping items for a fulfilling a lending request may be based on an existing lending request
This would be an efficient process if the lending request is created automatically by an incoming ISO ILL message
However, if the lending requests are created manually (in an based workflow), creating the lending request and then shipping the item may be laboursome
The next couple of slides will describe an efficient process for quickly shipping items without first creating a lending request

3. Say you got an email with a request ….

4. You search, find the resource …

5. … and put the call number on the slip

6. All that remains to be done is to ship the item !
After fetching the item, use the Shipping Items screen to:
Select the borrower and request id
Wand in the item barcode

7. A configurable warning pops up

8. And that’s it !
A Shipping Slip may be printed using ‘Print Slip’

10. A lending request was automatically created …

11. … and the item is marked as shipped

12. Configuration
Mark the resource sharing library with ‘Automatic Creation’

13. Configuration
The warning is configurable in the ‘Other Settings menu

14. Thank You
