In-Transit Slip Options Dialog Box

To open this dialog box:
In Polaris Administration, select Parameters, Patron Services, In-transit slip options.

Use this dialog box to specify the information included on in-transit and in-transit for hold slips. In-transit slips are printed when an item’s status changes to In Transit (because it belongs to another branch) or Transferred (because it will fill a hold and needs to be sent to the pick-up library) during a circulation transaction.

• Print patron name on In-transit-hold slip - Select (check) to include a requesting patron’s name on the in-transit for hold slip.

• Print patron barcode on In-transit-hold slip - Select (check) to include a requesting patron’s barcode on the in-transit for hold slip.

• Print library full name and Print library abbreviation - Optional. Select either or both to print the parent library of the destination branch. These options apply to all in-transit slips.

• Print branch full name or Print branch abbreviation - Required destination branch information. You must select one option.

• Number of trailing blank lines - Select or type the number of blank lines to add to the end of the slip. Use this setting to control the length of the in-transit slip.
