[Guidry, Wade]

The 7 "know items not in place" probably means that barcodes in use on American Artist are actually recorded on issues from other titles.

Or possibly the barcodes didn't scan correctly. I would look at those 7 barcodes in Alma and see what comes up if you haven't done that already.

Without knowing the report error details, I don't have any thoughts on the other one.

So ran the shelf reporting again on my first file because I realized I forgot the "s" in the call number "PERIODICALS". This file is for all of the American Artist issues we have. This was the report
[cid:image001.jpg at 01D5F230.09631CA0]
The 515 are the American Artist issues and the 7 "know items not in place" are for other titles, not American artists.

Then I ran my second file, Ad Astra_Amerasian and this was the result to that.

This is the error message I got
[cid:image004.jpg at 01D5F230.09631CA0]
The 70 "missing items but marked in place" are for Variety - we are in the A's and the title we are working is American Artist.


Thanks, Donna

Have you tried setting up the shelf report range like this, and then selecting your file...

If so, what error message do you get when you submit the job.

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] how do you use shelf reporting for periodicals inventory if no unique call number

We are trying to inventory our periodicals using Shelf Report.  Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working for us.  We created an excel file of barcodes, opened Shelf Report, and on our first try defined the inventory as a "Range."  We realized that this won't work because the periodicals all have the same call number - PERIODICALS. Then we defined inventory as a "Set."  We tried to run our excel file as one of these sets Items by location and Physical Journal title and the results were the same, "Items on shelf but out of range/set".  When looking at a list periodicals, the only difference besides the barcode is the description, which gives us volume and issue number - otherwise everything else is the same.  So unless I can figure out how to maybe create a set that could work with shelf reporting, I am stumped and could use a little help.
Thanks, Donna
