[Wactclc-alma] Remove "Lost and Paid" status

Wed Apr 17 18:10:28 PDT 2019

Wade,

I think Naoko and Tammy both reported seeing something like this during one of the weekly calls last month when they were talking about the problems they've had with marking things Lost & Paid. I think it's part of the whole-Alma doesn't think anything marked Lost & Paid should ever come back.

I'd recommend opening an SF ticket with the item barcode #, and having ExLibris look at that example.

Or, if you've already done something else with the item, then open a case on the next example.

I'm guessing the issue could be something specific about the item, rather than the workflow itself.

I tried "return items" first but got this message:

I believe I tested this in one of the sandboxes, and running the item through the 'return items' workflow puts the item back in place.

However, any refund to the patron has to be done manually.

Now that we have successfully enabled the new "lost and paid' status when patron pays for a lost item. Does anyone know how to remove and restore that status to "in place" when the item is found and returned?

Thank you.

Stephanie:

To enable the new 'lost and paid' status, go to Admin / Fulfillment / Other Settings, and set

and set the close_paid_lost_loan setting to true.

Tammy:

I don't think there is a way to run a job and flip items to 'lost and paid'.

To close those loans, I beleive you could use analytics to identify lost loans that have been paid, and then run that set through the 'close lost loans' job.

I'd be interested in learning what needs to be done to set up the lost and paid status too.  So far I haven't been able to see it come up on our Alma either.  I'm going to assume there's a setting somewhere in config that allows for this to show up, where I haven't had a chance to discover yet.

Hi, all,

Now that Alma has a way to indicate an item is lost and paid for, instead of missing, I want to change an item from missing to lost and paid.  It's a laptop that was stolen when a student's car was stolen.  I've tried running the Information Update job which allows you to change status from Item in Place to Missing and vice versa but Lost and Paid is not an option.  Do any of you have any other ideas on how to change the status on this item?

Tammy
