[Wactclc-alma] reinstating a periodical for receiving

[Stephanie Levesen]

Hi Cara Beth,

I think I can help.  I've attached the procedure we use to create a new POL and attach holdings to it.  From the receive new items screenshot you provided, it doesn't look like your existing holdings are actually attached to the new POL line you created.  We ran into that here this quarter when our POLs were deleted for magazine holdings.  With Wade's help he was able to duplicate things, but we still had to go in and reattach the existing holdings to POLs.  I got most of them, but there are a few I still find that have to be reattached.

Let me know if this helps or if it's something else that's not working.  Don't delete your existing holdings yet.

Thanks,
Stephanie

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] reinstating a periodical for receiving

We have a journal that we wish to reinstate after not receiving since before Alma.
I am so frustrated trying to set this up for receiving routines, I'm not sure if I can describe what's happening.

This is a gift subscription to Aquaculture North America.
I set up a POLine, and alma created a new holdings record separate from the existing holdings. I don't remember how, but I set up a POL with the existing holdings.  When I start the receiving routine, the locations column is empty:

The Receive New Items screen doesn't behave as I expect it. It doesn't show the Last received item, and it won't generate a description from the Chronology inputs.

I am considering withdrawing the back issues and starting from scratch, but first I will ask if anyone else has had this problem.
