<h1><a name="kanchor2592"></a>Block and Allow Settings for Associated Patrons </h1>
<p>These settings appear in the Associations view of the Patron Status workform. Defaults for associated patrons are defined in Patron Services Administration. See: <a href="Set_defaults_pat_associations.htm">Set defaults for associated patron settings</a>.</p>
<div class="NoteShade">
<p><b>Notes:</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Your library might set the PAC profile <b>Patron access options</b> so patrons can view settings for associated patrons in their PAC accounts, see <a href="../../Public_Access_Admin/PDOPatAcc/Set_patron_associations_display_in_PAC.htm">Set patron associations display in PAC</a>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A patron cannot check out an ILL item on behalf of an associated patron; the requesting patron must check out the ILL item.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<h2>Block Me Setting for Associated Patrons</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor2593"></a><a name="IX_blocking_relationships"></a>When you create a new association for a patron (the parent or primary record), you can choose to block the parent or primary record at checkout and renewal when an associated secondary or child record is blocked at checkout. </p>
<ul>
<li>One primary record may be linked to multiple secondary records. If any of the secondary records are blocked, the primary record is blocked.</li>
<li>One secondary record may be linked to multiple primary records. If the secondary record is blocked, all the linked primary records are blocked.</li>
<li>Two primary records (Mom and Dad) may be linked to each other. If either is blocked, the other is blocked. Furthermore, a son may be linked to both Mom and Dad. Since all records are directly linked, if one is blocked, all will be blocked.</li>
<li>Block checking is only one level deep. For example, instructor A and instructor C are both linked to student B. If B is blocked, A and C will both be blocked, because they each are one link away from B. But A will not be blocked if C is blocked because A is not directly linked to C.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Allow Me Setting for Associated Patrons</h2>
<ul>
<li>When you add an associated patron to a patron record and check the <b>Allow me to pick up holds for these patrons</b> checkbox, the primary patron whose record is displayed in the Patron Status workform can pick up held items for the associated patron. For primary patrons who are designated as allowed to pick up held items for other associated patrons, the following circulation processing occurs:</li>
<li>
<p>The primary patron can use his or her own library card to check out the items held for other associated patrons.</p>
<ul>
<li>When the primary patron checks out an item for an associated patron, the item is checked out to the current (primary) patron, not the associated patron for whom the hold was placed.</li>
<li>For offline checkouts, when the primary patron checks out an item for an associated patron, the following message is included in the offline processing report: <b>This item satisfies a hold request for associated patron [barcode, last name, first name, middle initial]</b>.</li>
<li>When the primary patron checks out an item for an associated patron using Polaris ExpressCheck (or a self-check unit that communicates via SIP or NCIP), the item is checked out to the primary patron without an additional message.</li>
<li>The hold request is deleted from the associated patrons account (except in the case where the request status Out to patron is enabled in Polaris Administration).</li>
<li>The item history shows that the item was checked out to the current patron who is authorized to pick up holds for the associated patron.</li>
<li>The item is added to the primary patrons list of checked out items.</li>
<li>All renewals, notices, overdues etc. are linked to the patron who checked out the item for the associated patron.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Staff Client Check-Out and Renewal Processing</h2>
<ul>
<li>Associated patron blocking applies to check out from the Check Out workform, renewal from the Check Out workform, and renewal from the Patron Status workform - Items Out view. If associated patron blocking has been enabled and at least one patron record associated with the transacting patron is blocked, a dialog box is displayed showing the linked patrons and the type of block. The same conditions that would block the associated record directly during checkout will block the primary patron record checkout. The block dialog box lists each block on a separate line. Each entry in the Associated Patrons list is a link to the associated patrons record.</li>
<li>If one or more associated patrons are blocked for any reason that requires an override, both the permission to override the specific block and the permission <b>Override associated patron block: Allow</b> are required to continue check out. Transaction 9001 logs supervisor overrides for the <b>Override associated patron block</b> permission override</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="XREF_59389_Adding_and_Editing"></a>Adding and Editing Associations</h2>
<p>
<p>Staff members use the Patron Status workform - Associations view to add or remove associations. When the staff member adds an association to a patron record, the Add Association dialog box includes the option <b>Block me if these patron records are blocked</b>. The open patron record is the primary record. When <b>Block me</b> is checked, it will be blocked when the newly associated record is blocked. The Patron Status workform - Associations view displays the list of associated patrons. A column indicates a blocking relationship. The Patron Status workform also offers a Tools menu option, <b>Check Associated Patron Blocks</b>. Staff can select this option to display a list of the blocks on the associated patrons records. </p>
</p>
<ul>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Merging Patron Records</span> - The “winning” patron record retains any associated patron links it already has, but the winning record is not affected by any links in the losing record.</li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Deleting Patron Records</span> - When a patron record with associations is deleted, the link is removed from the associated records. A warning message displays with a breakable link, but there is no additional message if the linked patrons are blocked.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Offline Checkout</h2>
<p>If a blocked associated patron is detected when offline check-out transactions are uploaded, a message is written to the upload log file. The message includes the associated patron name and barcode, and the block text. If the patron is blocked for more than one reason, each block is listed; if more than one patron is blocked, each is listed in a separate message.</p>
<h2>PAC and Polaris ExpressCheck Check-out and Renewal</h2>
<ul>
<li>From PAC, the primary (parent) record is stopped from renewal if an associated patron record has exceeded the 2nd level fine amount as determined by the governing library for patron blocks, or if the associated patron record has exceeded the maximum overdue item limit as determined by the governing library for patron blocks.</li>
<li>In Polaris ExpressCheck, the primary (parent) record is also stopped from checking out and renewal if an associated patron record has exceeded the 2nd level fine amount as determined by the governing library for patron blocks, or if the associated patron record has exceeded the maximum overdue item limit as determined by the governing library for patron blocks. A message is displayed, which can be edited in Polaris Language Editor (WebAdmin). For more information, see WebAdmin online help. The WebAdmin string IDs are as follows:<ul><li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Default header text</span> - <b>Polaris ExpressCheck - Associated Patron Blocks</b><br /> String ID <b>EC_TEXT_COURTESY_ASSOCIATED_ACCTBLOCKED_TITLE </b></li><li class="FM_Bullet"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Default message text</span> - <b>One or more records linked to your library registration is blocked. Click Show Details to see more information.<br /></b>String ID <b>EC_TEXT_COURTESY_ASSOCIATED_ACCTBLOCKED_MSG</b></li></ul></li>
</ul>
<h2>SIP Self-Check</h2>
<p>A setting in the SelfCheck Unit parameter <b>Patron blocks</b> controls whether a patron is blocked at checkout when an associated patron has exceeded the 2nd level fine amount, or has exceeded the maximum overdue item limit as determined by the governing library for patron blocks. The parameter is available at the system, library, or branch level, and is set to <b>No</b> (do not block) by default. The system uses the setting of the workstations branch. See <a href="../PDPselfcheck/Set_SIP_self-check_parameters.htm">Set SIP self-check parameters</a>.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_65515_Charging_for"></a>Charging for Patron Registration</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor1464"></a><a name="IX_overview_120"></a>If your library wants to charge registration fees to certain types of patrons, such as temporary, seasonal, or non-resident users, you can set up registration fees by patron code. The fee is applied automatically when patrons with the specified patron code register or renew their registrations, and their patron accounts are blocked until the fee is paid. Registration fees are applied according to the settings of the registration branch. </p>

</ul>
<h2><a name="TOC_Staff_Client_Workflow"></a><a name="XREF_82716_Staff_Client"></a>Staff Client Workflow</h2>
<p>If a fee has been defined for the patron code, a Registration Fee dialog box appears when a staff member selects <b>Save</b>&#160;in the new patron record. The dialog box displays the amount of the fee and the following options:</p>
<ul>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Pay</span>&#160;- The staff member must have the permission <b>Fines: Pay fines at circ</b>&#160;to accept payment for the registration fee. The Pay dialog box opens and displays all current payment methods, including credit card payments if the organization has implemented these. Partial payments are possible. If a fee is partially paid, a block is placed on the patron account (see <a href="#XREF_56123_Patron_Block">Patron Block for Registration Fee</a>). If the option to print a receipt was selected, a receipt prints. </li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Waive</span>&#160;- The staff member must have the permission <b>Fines: Waive fines at circ</b>. A waive transaction is written to the patron account, and a receipt prints if the receipt option was selected.</li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Charge</span>&#160;- The charge is written to the patron account. The charge reason is listed as <b>Registration fee</b>.</li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Print Receipt</span>&#160;- This option is selected by default. Receipts are printed according to the printer and driver set up for the Check Out workform printer. It is not necessary to check any specific receipt type on the Check-out options dialog box, but the printer and driver must be defined. The information printed on the receipt is that selected for fine receipts with the Patron Services parameter <b>Fine receipt options</b>.</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="TOC_Patron_Block_for"></a><a name="XREF_56123_Patron_Block"></a>Patron Block for Registration Fee</h2>
<p>If the fee is charged to the patron account or only partially paid, a system block (<b>Patron registration fee</b>) is placed on the patron account. The block is cleared when the total charge amount is paid. As with other blocks, clicking on the block text from the Patron Blocks dialog box opens the Patron Account view. The permission <b>Override circ blocks</b>&#160;is required to override the block at check-out.</p>
<h2><a name="TOC_Expired_Registration"></a><a name="XREF_29318_Expired"></a>Expired Registration</h2>
<p>If the expiration date in the patron record is reset (the registration is renewed), and the patron code requires a registration fee, the system displays the Registration fee dialog box as for a new registration. If the patron code is changed to non-chargeable at renewal, the fee dialog box is not displayed.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br /> If a new patron record is saved with a chargeable patron code and then changed to a non-chargeable code, no action is taken on the patron account. If the fee was paid, the payment transaction will remain. If the fee was charged, the charge will remain on the patron account. The registration fee and block remain until staff pay or waive the charge.</p>
<h2><a name="TOC_Offline_Workflow"></a><a name="XREF_88872_Offline_Workflow"></a>Offline Workflow</h2>
<p>If a new patron record is created offline and the patron code is a chargeable type, the fee is charged to the patron account and the <b>Patron Registration Fee</b>&#160;block is placed on the patron record. The offline upload file includes a note in the entry for the registration.</p>
<h2><a name="TOC_PAC_Registration"></a><a name="XREF_51558_PAC_Registration"></a>PAC Registration</h2>
<p>As part of the PAC registration process, the patron selects a home branch. The home branchs default settings are used to create the new patron registration. If the default patron code set for PAC registration is a chargeable code, the program displays a message to the patron. The default message is <b>Your library account will be charged a [$] registration fee. Do you want to continue?</b>&#160;The message text can be customized or translated with Polaris WebAdmin (Language Editor).</p>
<p>If the patron chooses to continue, the fee is charged to the patron account and the Patron Registration Fee block is placed on the record.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br /> There is no option to renew an expired patron registration from PAC.</p>
<h2><a name="TOC_Polaris_ExpressCheck"></a><a name="XREF_32464_Polaris"></a>Polaris ExpressCheck</h2>
<p>Patrons can renew an expiring registration at the Polaris ExpressCheck workstation if the option <b>Permit registration renewal if patron record expires</b>&#160;is selected in the parameter <b>Polaris ExpressCheck: Enable</b>. If the patron code is a chargeable type according to the options set for the patrons registered branch, the program displays the message for an expired patron record and does not offer an option to renew. The patron must renew the registration at the circulation desk.</p>

<p class="NoteShade"><b>Important:</b>
<br /> When you add and save a new PCDF, the PCDF is not available for Find Tool searches until the ERMS daemon is recycled. See your system administrator.</p>
<p>To define PCDFs for the library system:</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">In the Administration Explorer tree view, open the <b>Profiles</b> folder at the system level, and select the <span class="Input">Patron Services</span> tabbed page in the details view.</li>

They are also used for reports. An appropriate patron code is typically assigned to the patron when the patron registers. </p>
<p>You define patron codes in the Patron Codes policy table, which can be opened from an organization workform or with the Administration Explorer. All organizations have access to the same set of patron code names because the codes can be entered and changed from the system, library, and branch levels. Changes are immediately applied to all Polaris records that use the code, regardless of which organization owns the records.</p>
<p>Patron codes are available as selections in the Fines policy table, Loan Periods policy table, and the <b>Patron code</b> box on the Patron Registration workform. Each organization can filter the list of codes so that only selected codes are available for use in the <b>Patron code</b> box on the Patron Registration workform for that organizations patron records. The illustration shows the Patron Registration workform.</p>

Many circulation and patron accounting transactions are associated with specific patrons, and the log files that record these transactions store the specific patron IDs associated with the transactions. Using the Patron Services parameter <b>Remove patron ID from circ transactions</b>, you can purge this patron-specific information from your transaction records after a time period you specify. The same settings also purge patron IDs from item record histories. A nightly SQL job, PurgePatronIDFromCircTransactions, purges the patron IDs from the transactions according to your settings.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Important:<br /></b>Patron IDs are not removed from transactions generated by the system unless this feature is enabled at the system level.</p>

The program identifies transactions from which to remove patron information by counting back the number of days starting from beginning of the day it runs (12:00 midnight) through the final day (12:00 midnight).</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:</b>&#160;<br />The term is set to 30 days. When the program runs on the night of August 30, it will count back from midnight August 30 through the full day to midnight July 31. The patron ID will be removed from all transactions prior to 12:00 July 31.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Select <b>exact date</b>, and type a date or select a date from the drop-down calendar. Information for that date will be purged. This option is most useful for testing or implementing the purge feature for a short period of time.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b><b>Important:<br /></b></b>Automatic lost item recovery actions, which take action on the patron account if a lost item is recovered within a set period of time, depend on the availability of patron ID information. If your organization uses automatic lost item recovery actions, be sure to coordinate the settings so that the patron ID is available if the lost item is recovered within the time period you specify. See <a href="../PDPfines/Setting_Lost_Item_Recovery_Defaults.htm#XREF_53174_Setting_Lost_Item">Setting Lost Item Recovery Defaults</a>.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_24056_Setting_Patron"></a>Setting Options for Deleting Patron Records</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor2859"></a><a name="IX_methods_overview"></a><a name="kanchor2860"></a><a name="IX_deletion_options"></a>When a patron record is deleted, it is permanently removed from the Polaris database. You can manually delete patron records (see <a href="../../Patron_Services/PPregstr/Deleting_Patron_Records.htm#XREF_81174_Deleting_Patron" data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">Deleting Patron Records</a>) or you can specify criteria whereby patron records are automatically deleted each night. </p>
<p>With either method, you can specify blocks that prevent certain records from being deleted.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />Staff must have the following Circulation permissions to delete patron records and override blocks to deletion: <b>Patron registration: Delete</b>, and <b>Patron registration: Override blocks to delete</b>.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor2861"></a><a name="IX_auto_deletion_overview"></a>You can set Polaris to automatically delete patron records that have been inactive for a specified number of days. If you set Polaris to immediately delete unblocked records that meet this criterion, you can also choose to place any blocked records in an exceptions record set. You should regularly review this record set. If you do not want any records to be deleted immediately, set Polaris to place all the records that are candidates for deletion, both blocked and unblocked, in a record set where they can be reviewed. After review, some records may be edited and retained, while others may be manually deleted from within the record set. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b> <br />Automatic deletion is accomplished through a nightly SQL job, Patron Delete. The job is not enabled by default. For details, <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">see <a href="../../Administration/PDquickref/Administration_Shortcut_Keys.htm#XREF_10120_Working_With">Polaris Permission Groups - Default Permissions Reference</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>
<p>Records that are blocked from automatic deletion, whether placed in a record set or not, are deleted automatically when the circumstances that prevented deletion no longer exist. System-assigned circulation blocks prevent automatic deletion. Library-assigned or free-text circulation blocks do not prevent automatic deletion.</p>
<p>The Patron Services parameter <b>Patron delete options</b> sets the criteria that affect both manual and automatic deletion of patron records. The parameter is available at the system, library, and branch level.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />Even when a patron record is manually deleted in the Polaris staff client, it is not immediately removed from the database. Instead, the barcode is modified and the name, address, e-mail address, and user-defined fields are made blank, and the record is not returned in Find Tool search results. The altered record is then deleted as part of the nightly Patron Processing SQL job. This process optimizes staff client performance, and does not affect the settings, procedures, and conditions for automatically and/or manually deleting patron records described here.</p>

<p><a name="kanchor2862"></a><a name="IX_financial_transaction"></a>Certain patron account data from deleted patron records is saved in separate database tables for the period specified in the Patron Services parameter <b>Account transaction deletion</b>. If an associated item record is also deleted, the item record ID, barcode, title, author, and material type are retained. This process ensures the accuracy of the following reports even when the transacting patron records have been deleted:</p>

<li>Daily Cash Balance Detail</li>
<li>Daily Cash Drawer</li>
<li>Daily Cash Drawer POS</li>
<li>Billed Patrons</li>
<li>Fines and Fees</li>
<li>Fines and Fees Summary</li>
<li>Non-POS Payments</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />The Daily Cash Balance Detail, Daily Cash Drawer, and Daily Cash Drawer POS reports can use retrospective data dating back to the beginning of the calendar year during which Polaris 4.0 was installed. The other reports listed here use only data from patron records deleted after Polaris 4.0 was installed. This is because these reports include both charge and payment transactions, and the retrospective data does not include charges.</p>
<p>The saved data is then purged according to the parameter setting in the nightly Patron Processing job. For example, if the setting for <b>Account transaction deletion</b> is two years, any data older than two years is purged when the job runs. For more information about setting the <b>Account transaction deletion parameter</b>, see <a href="Setting_Patron_Accounting_Options.htm#XREF_63686_Setting_Patron">Setting Patron Accounting Options</a>. For more information about the cash reports, <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">see <a href="../../Patron_Services/PPuseacct/Patron_Financial_Reports.htm">Patron Financial Reports</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>

<h1><a name="XREF_63686_Setting_Patron"></a>Setting Patron Accounting Options</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor180"></a><a name="IX_administration_settings"></a>Certain Patron Services parameters control what options are available for handling financial transactions in patron accounts:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li><b>Credit for overpayment</b>&#160;- Controls whether staff members can accept an overpayment on charges and place a credit on the patrons account. The charges are paid, and the credit can then be carried on the account or refunded to the patron.</li>
<li><b>Distributed waives</b>&#160;- Controls whether a specified waived amount can be deducted from every charge on the patrons account. If a particular charge is greater than or equal to the waived amount, the specified waived amount is deducted from the charge. If a charge is less than the specified waived amount, no action is taken.</li>
<li><b>Account transaction deletion</b>&#160;- Controls how long finished transactions are listed in the patrons transaction summary. A deposit or charge transaction is considered finished when the outstanding amount is 0. Your settings for this parameter apply to all patrons registered at the branch. This setting also determines how long some patron account data from deleted patron records is saved for certain financial reports. See <a href="Setting_Options_for_Deleting_Patron_Records.htm#XREF_42276_Retaining">Retaining Financial Information for Deleted Patron Records</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>These parameters can be set at the system, library, or branch level. At the system level, you can also set Polaris to waive fines automatically at check-out or renewal. You may want to waive fines automatically at check-out for items that are overdue on one patrons account, but “recovered” when the item is being checked out to another patron. At renewal, you can set Polaris to waive the fine on an overdue item if the same patron is renewing the item. </p>

<h2><a name="TOC_Waive_All_Option_in_the"></a><a name="XREF_42985_Waive_All_Option"></a>Waive All Option in the Patron Status Workform - Account View</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor181"></a><a name="IX_suppressing_Waive_All"></a>By default, the Waive All icon and shortcut key are available for use in the Patron Status workform - Account view. When the permissioned staff member clicks the icon, all of the patrons fines are waived.</p>
<p>You can choose to make the Waive All icon and shortcut key unavailable for use. In Polaris Administration, set the Patron Services parameter <b>Waive All displays</b>&#160;to <b>No</b>. The parameter is available at the system, library, and branch levels. The system uses the setting of the workstations logged-on branch.</p>
<p>This setting makes the icon and shortcut key unavailable and prevents staff members from accidentally waiving all fines with a single click.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b><b>Note:<br /></b></b>The <b>Waive All displays</b>&#160;parameter setting affects only the Waive All icon display and shortcut key function. It does not affect a staff members permission to waive fines.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_25482_Setting_Patron"></a>Setting Patron Duplicate Detection</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor4677"></a><a name="IX_See_duplicate_detection_1"></a><a name="kanchor4678"></a><a name="IX_patron_overview_1"></a>When you save a patron record, Polaris automatically checks for duplicate records. By default, Polaris checks the patron name fields (first and last names) for duplicates. Polaris also checks the patron birth date and barcode for matches if this data is in the record. You can set Polaris to check the following <span class="FM_Emphasis">additional</span> patron record fields for matching criteria:</p>
<ul>
<li>Any two user-defined fields (UDFs)</li>
<li>Name on Identification</li>
<li>Phone 1 </li>
<li>E-mail address</li>
</ul>
<p>A match on any of these optional fields triggers a duplicate detection match. For example, if<b> Phone 1</b> is selected, a matching phone number triggers a duplicate detection match, even if the patron names do not match.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note</b>:<br />The system compares field to field, for example, barcode to barcode. The system does not cross-compare fields to find duplicates. For example, the system does not compare patron name with Name on Identification.<br /></p>
<p><a name="kanchor4679"></a><a name="IX_matching_characters"></a>A duplicate is a character-for-character match of the complete field. However, if the field contains only one character, the system does not detect these records as duplicates. This prevents unnecessary and false duplicate detection in cases where a library has used an asterisk or another single character to flag certain records.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor4680"></a><a name="IX_patron_use_of_birth_date"></a>The system also uses the birth date to check for duplicate patron records to distinguish records that might otherwise be considered a match. For example, if there are two patrons named John Smith, a match is only detected if the birth dates are identical as well. If no birth date is supplied, duplicate checking uses only the existing criteria.</p>
<div class="NoteShade"><b>Notes:</b>
<ul>
<li>
<p>When a birth date is included in PAC self-registration, the system uses the birth date to check for duplicate patron records, in addition to the first name and last name. If no birth date is supplied, duplicate checking uses only the first and last names. Use the PAC profile <b>Patron Access options</b> to require a birth date entry for patron registration from PAC. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>You can opt out of duplicate detection during patron self-registration in PAC using the <b>Patron Access Options</b> dialog. For more information, <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">see <a href="../../Public_Access_Admin/PDOPatAcc/Set_up_online_patron_self-registration.htm#XREF_95374_Set_up_online">Set up online patron self-registration</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p><a name="kanchor4681"></a><a name="IX_list_limits"></a>When possible duplicate records are detected, the Duplicate Patrons dialog displays a list of the possible duplicates. To conserve system resources, the list is limited to 500 entries per duplicate detection criterion. For example, if 1,000 patrons have the same email address and 30 have the same phone number, Polaris lists 530 possible duplicate records.</p>
<p>Use the Patron Services parameter <b>Duplication detection options</b> to select one or more of the optional duplicate-checking fields. This parameter is available at the system, library, and branch level. The system uses the registration librarys settings.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_45405_Setting_Patron"></a>Setting Patron Registration Required Fields and Defaults</h1>
<p>The Patron Services parameter <b>Patron registration options</b> is available at the System, Library, and Branch levels in Polaris Administration. It is used for setting additional required fields and default values for patron records. The parameter includes three tabs: General defaults, Data Field Defaults, and Required Fields. The Data Fields Defaults tab includes two subtabs: the UDFs subtab is used for setting required fields and defaults for user-defined fields; and the Custom Fields subtab is used for setting required fields and defaults for patron custom data fields.</p>
<p> When a staff member registers a new patron, the labels for required fields appear in bold text on the Patron Registration workform, and any default values are displayed.</p>

<p><a name="kanchor5189"></a><a name="IX_overview_121"></a><a name="kanchor5190"></a><a name="IX_staff_client_2"></a>When a staff member accepts a payment from a patron, the staff member selects a payment method such as <b>Cash</b>&#160;or <b>Check</b>&#160;to describe the payment. Use the Payment Methods policy table to display or suppress the following payment method options for use in the staff client:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Cash</li>
<li>Check</li>
<li>Collection agency</li>
<li>Credit card</li>
<li>Credit card - Manual</li>
<li>Debit card</li>
<li>Smart card</li>
<li>Voucher</li>
</ul>
<p>For example, if you do not use a collection agency, you can suppress this option from display. Additionally, if your library does not have an integrated solution but offers a non-integrated payment option, you can select Credit card - Manual to make this option available in the staff client when taking payments. Libraries that already have an integrated solution will leave the Credit card - Manual option unselected in the Payment Methods table. You can also set the order in which the options are displayed in the payment dialog boxes.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The&#160;Credit card - Manual option does not make credit card payments possible from PAC or MPAC.</p>
<p>The payment options you select in the policy table appear in the following situations:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Pay dialog box</span>&#160;- Paying charges from the Patron Status workform - Patron Account view (if the patron account has a credit, <b>Pay from credit</b>&#160;is an automatic option); paying overdue charges when renewing an item from the Patron Status workform - Items Out view; paying charges when checking in an item; paying overdue charges when renewing an item from the Check Out workform</li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Declare lost item dialog box</span>&#160;- Paying charges when declaring an item lost from the Patron Status workform - Items Out view</li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Create credit dialog box</span>&#160;- Creating a credit from the Patron Status workform - Patron Account view (<b>Collection agency</b>&#160;option does not apply to this situation)</li>
<li><span class="FM_BulletHead">Create deposit dialog box</span>&#160;- Creating a deposit from the Patron Status workform - Patron Account view (<b>Collection agency</b>&#160;option does not apply to this situation)</li>
</ul>
<p>Payment methods can be set from the system, library, and branch organization levels in the Administration Explorer. However, you specify the options for each branch. When you open the table at the system level, you can view and change entries for any branch. At the library level, you can view and change entries for the branches associated with the library. At the branch level, you can view and change entries for the selected branch.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>These System Administration permissions are required to modify this table: <b>Access administration: Allow</b>, <b>Access tables: Allow</b>, <b>Modify payment methods table: Allow</b>.</p>

<p><a name="kanchor2466"></a><a name="IX_See_reading_history"></a><a name="kanchor2467"></a><a name="IX_overview_administration"></a>Your library can save a reading history for a patrons account. In the staff client, this list is displayed on the Patron Status workform - Reader Services view. (The Circulation permission <b>Patron Status: Display reader services</b> is required to view a patrons reading history on the Patron Status workform.) When reading histories are enabled for a patrons registered branch, patrons can also view their reading histories by accessing their patron accounts through the PAC. The reading history contains basic information for each item the patron has checked out since the reading history was started.</p>
<p>Use the Patron Services parameter <b>Reading history</b> to enable reading histories, set the amount of time an entry remains in the reading history, and set the maximum number of entries that can be retained in the reading history at once. The parameter is available at the system, library, and branch level. After the parameter is set, staff can start reading histories for specific patrons. If reading history is enabled in Polaris Administration, the Reading History view is available on the Patron Registration workform in the Polaris Web App (Leap). <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">See <a href="../../Patron_Services/PPregstr/Working_with_Reading_Histories.htm#XREF_40803_Working_with">Working with Reading Histories</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Important:</b>
<br /> If your system includes Polaris Outreach Services, reading histories are automatically enabled for outreach services patrons, regardless of the <b>Reading History</b> parameter setting. Separate settings control reading history limits for outreach services patrons. See <a href="../PDPoutreachSA/Set_reading_history_limits_for_outreach_patrons.htm#XREF_84024_Set_reading">Set reading history limits for outreach patrons</a>.

<p><a name="kanchor5468"></a><a name="IX_setup_overview_1"></a>You can define up to 10 patron custom data fields in addition to the 5 user defined fields (UDFs). In Polaris Administration, Patron Custom Data Fields (PCDFs) are defined at the System organization level; filtered at the library or branch level; and configured at the branch level to specify required fields or default values for the Patron Registration workform in the staff client and the PAC self-registration and Update Info pages. </p>
<p>To define the PCDFs for the library system, enter a unique label and define fields. See <a href="Define_patron_custom_data_fields_PCDFs.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor"> Define Patron Custom Data Fields (PCDFs)</span></a>. Once these PCDFs have been defined at the System level, you can filter the PCDFs at the branch level so that only the PCDFs your branch wants to use are listed. When a PCDF is selected for the branch organization, it will be available to configure for the Patron Registration workform in the staff client and for the Self Registration page in the PAC (PowerPAC and Mobile PAC). See <a href="Filter_patron_codes_for_specific_organizations.htm#XREF_67771_Filter_patron">Filter patron codes for specific organizations</a>.</p>
<p>When configuring the display of PCDFs for the staff client Patron Registration workform, you can set default values for custom fields or specify that custom fields are required. See <a href="Setting_Patron_Registration_Required_Fields_and_Defaults.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Setting Patron Registration Required Fields and Defaults</span></a>.</p>
<p>A patron custom data field may be modified or deleted at the System level in Polaris Administration, provided the field is not used in any patron record. See <a href="Modify_or_delete_a_PCDF.htm#XREF_46184_Modify_or_delete_a">Modify or delete a PCDF</a>.</p>

<h2><a name="TOC_Patron_Messages_in_PAC"></a><a name="XREF_97452_Patron_Messages_in"></a>Patron Messages in PAC</h2>
<p>The My Record page in the PAC patron account displays a Messages drawer that the user clicks or taps to expand the Messages area. The side portion of every page of the patron account also displays counts of new and read messages that are convenient links to open the Messages area of the account. When the Messages area is expanded, the patron can check messages and mark them as read or delete them.</p>
<p class="indent">
<img src="../../../Resources/Images/PACMessages.png" alt="" />
</p>
<p>When a patron marks a message as read, the status is noted in the Patron Status workform - Notes view in the staff client. When a patron deletes a message, the message is also deleted from the Patron Status workform - Notes view. (Messages are also automatically removed according to the expiration period set in Polaris Administration.)</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br /> Patrons can also view their messages in the patron account on SIP self-check workstations if the SIP provider supports this feature. They may also print on the SIP checkout receipt. Messages are shortened to 250 characters if necessary, and they cannot be marked as read or deleted.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_98334_Setting_Up_Patron"></a>Setting Up Patron Photos</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor3905"></a><a name="IX_setup_1"></a>From the Patron Photo view in the Patron Record workform, staff members can take a photo, replace an old photo with a new one, upload an existing image file, or delete the photo from the patron record. If the workstation is set to display the photo, it also appears on the Check Out workform with the other patron information. (The patrons photo does not appear in the PAC.)</p>
<p>Workstations used to process patron photos require a Windows-compatible webcam and associated software. Follow the installation instructions that accompany the webcam.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />You cannot install webcam software on a thin client (terminal server environment) or use it via Remote Desktop, so you cannot take new patron pictures by these means. However, if the pictures are loaded from another source or captured on a conventional workstation with webcam software, they are displayed normally in terminal server and Remote Desktop environments.</p>
<p>For information about taking and editing patron photos, <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">see <a href="../../Patron_Services/PPregstr/Working_with_Patron_Photos.htm#XREF_16131_Working_with">Working with Patron Photos</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>

<h2><a name="TOC_System_Administration1"></a><a name="XREF_66931_System"></a>System Administration Settings</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor3906"></a>The Patron Services profile <b>Display photo ID</b> controls the display of patron photos in the Patron Record workform and the Check Out workform. It also controls whether patron photographs are displayed in the Patron Registration workform in the Polaris Web App (Leap). The profile is available at the system, library, branch, and workstation levels, and is set to <b>Yes</b> by default.</p>
<p>The following system-level Circulation permissions control the ability to work with patron photos in the Patron Photo view of the Patron Registration workform:</p>
<ul>
<li><b style="font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;color: #000000;text-decoration: none;letter-spacing: 0.00em;">Modify photo IDs</b>
</li>
<li><b style="font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;color: #000000;text-decoration: none;letter-spacing: 0.00em;">Delete photo IDs</b>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The permissions are not automatically granted at installation, so you must specifically assign them or supply a supervisor override. (The permissions do not affect the photo display in the Check Out workform.)</p>
<h2><a name="TOC_Importing_Photos_from_an"></a><a name="XREF_64562_Importing_Photos"></a>Importing Photos from an Existing Database</h2>

All five are searchable with the Polaris Find Tool. UDFs can be used for additional identification purposes and as criteria for detecting duplicate patron records. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />Your library may allow users to log on to PAC using network credentials instead of the Polaris patron barcode or username and password. If so, a UDF should be defined for the patrons network username. <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">For more information, see <a href="../../Public_Access_Admin/PDOPatAcc/Set_Up_PAC_Active_Directory_Log_On.htm">Set Up PAC Active Directory Log On</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>
<p>The UDFs are set up when Polaris is implemented. At the system level, you can define UDFs as free-text fields where staff members type text, or as drop-menu options. If you define UDFs as drop-menu options, they appear in drop-menu list boxes everywhere UDFs can be selected.</p>
<p class="indent">
<img src="../../../Resources/Images/UDFPatReg.png" alt="" />
</p>
<p>Drop-menu option text can be edited, and the options can be deleted provided they are not used in any patron records.

<p><a name="kanchor1341"></a><a name="IX_setup_for_patron"></a><a name="kanchor1342"></a><a name="IX_setting_up_for_driver_s"></a>California libraries can enter information for a new patron in the patron record by scanning the 2D (two dimensional) barcode on a California drivers license or ID.</p>
<p>Normal barcode scanners will not read data from a drivers license. The license data is stored in a 2D format using PDF417 barcode symbology. Polaris has tested and recommends the Datalogic Gryphon GD4430 USB scanner. However, most 2D PDF417 USB wedge-type scanners should work.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />This “Drivers License Scan Facility” feature is separately licensed in Polaris.</p>
<p>A free-text Polaris user-defined field must be designated for the drivers license number. By default, Polaris uses UDF 1. If your library uses a different UDF for the drivers license, contact your Polaris Site Manager to change the UDF.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />The designated user-defined field must be a free text field. If it is changed to a drop-menu field in Polaris Administration, the registration data is entered appropriately when the drivers license barcode is scanned, but the ID number is not entered in the user-defined field on the patron record.</p>
<p>When the drivers license is scanned during patron registration, the following drivers license information is entered in the appropriate patron record fields: </p>
<ul>
<li>Name (Last, First Middle)</li>
<li>Street address (up to two lines) </li>
<li>City</li>
<li>State </li>
<li>Postal code</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br /> The address information is entered in the Home address fields in the Patron Registration workform.</p>
<ul>
<li>Birth date</li>
<li>License number (entered in the designated user-defined field)</li>
</ul>
<p>For registration instructions using this method <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online"><a href="../../Patron_Services/PPregstr/Scan_drivers_license_enter_patron_info.htm#XREF_19190_Scan_driver_s">Scan drivers license to enter patron information</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>
<h4 style="font-size: 11pt;font-style: italic;font-weight: bold;">Technical Notes</h4>
<ul>
<li>Before the Gryphon scanner is first used, it must be programmed to add a suffix of <b>$</b> to the drivers license barcode.</li>
<li>To avoid problems with patron name and address formatting, you must configure the scanner to run in a mode that returns the line feed character, which indicates the end of each field in the driver's license. For the Gryphon 44XX scanner, the correct mode is USB Alternate Keyboard. The image for reconfiguring the Gryphon 44XX scanner is included in the scanner user guide.</li>
<li>The code requires the file <b>DriversLicenseParser.js</b>. When the Polaris staff client is installed, the folder <b><span>ProgramData\Polaris\[version]\Scripts</span></b> is created. The file <b>DriversLicenseParser.js</b> must be placed in the <b>Scripts</b> folder.</li>
</ul>

<h1><a name="XREF_57352_View_and_convert"></a>View and Convert User-Defined Fields for Patron Records</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor481"></a><a name="IX_user_defined_fields_1"></a><a name="kanchor482"></a><a name="IX_viewing_13"></a>To view the user-defined fields (UDFs) that have been set up for your Polaris system, set up the options for drop-menu UDFs, and convert UDFs from one type to the other:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />Initial values in drop-menu UDFs are derived from your existing data. You can edit them and add more values if necessary. See the following procedure. When existing text UDFs are converted to drop lists, the options will be available only at branches that have used the corresponding text value.</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">In the Administration Explorer tree view, expand the System folder.</li>
<li value="2">Select <b>Profiles</b>, and select the <b>Patron Services</b> tab.</li>
<li value="3">Double-click <b>Patron registration user defined fields</b>. The User Defined Field Options dialog box opens.</li>
</ol>
<p class="indent2">

</p>
<p class="indent2">The <b>User Defined Field</b>drop-down list contains the UDFs that were set up at implementation. You can select a UDF to determine if it is defined as free-text or drop-menu on the Patron Registration workform and other appropriate system workforms. Drop-menu UDFs display the possible options defined for them. (Individual branches can select options for use and set the display order. See <a href="Set_drop-menu_user-defined_fields_for_organizations.htm#XREF_79638_Set_drop_menu_user">Set drop-menu user-defined fields for organizations</a>.)</p>

</p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="4">To convert a free-text UDF to a drop-menu UDF, follow these steps:</li>
</ol>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li value="1">Select the free-text UDF in the <b>User Defined Field</b> list.</li>
<li value="2">Select <b>Drop-menu</b>. All the free-text values currently entered in patron records for this UDF are listed as drop-menu options; by default, all are selected as eligible for use by individual organizations.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br /> If you are converting a free-text UDF with more than 500 unique entries, a message offers you the opportunity to continue or cancel the conversion. Large numbers of values may take some time to convert.</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;" data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="3">Click <b>OK</b>. (You must click <b>OK</b>before you modify any of the drop-menu options.)</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />You can also convert a drop-menu UDF to free text. In this case, all patron records using the options for the drop-menu UDF retain the option text as free-text in the appropriate UDF field.</p>
<ol start="5">
<li value="5">To add an option for a drop-menu UDF, follow these steps:</li>
</ol>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li value="1">Select the drop-menu UDF in the <b>User Defined Field</b> list.</li>
<li value="2">Scroll the list of options to the bottom (blank) entry in the list.</li>

</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;" data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="3">Double-click the blank field and type the new option in the space. You can type up to 64 alpha-numeric characters (letters and numbers).</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br /> A drop-menu option cannot be blank except in new records where an option has not yet been chosen or when it is cleared in bulk change. To indicate that no value is selected, set up an option with the text <b>None</b>.</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;" data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="4">Click <b>Apply</b>.</li>
</ol>
<ol start="6">
<li value="6">To edit a drop-menu UDF option, follow these steps:</li>
</ol>
<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">
<li value="1">Select the drop-menu UDF in the <b>User Defined Field</b> list.</li>
<li value="2">Double-click the option and type the new text over the old.</li>
<li value="3">Click <b>Apply</b>. All patron records and defaults using the old option will be updated with the options new text.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />You can also delete a drop-menu option as long as it is not currently being used in a patron record or as an organizational default setting for the UDF. Simply uncheck the options <b>Selected</b> checkbox.</p>
<ol start="7">
<li value="7">Click <b>OK</b> to save your changes and close the dialog box.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Important:</b>
<br /> If you make any UDF changes, you must log out and log back in to the Polaris staff client to see the effects of your changes in Polaris workforms.</p>
