<p>Various Polaris subsystems offer additional methods for creating records:<span style="font-weight: bold;">&#160;</span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Using Templates</span>&#160;- You can use templates to create new records such as item, bibliographic, and purchase order records. Using templates to create records is more efficient and ensures that certain standard information is entered the same way in each new record. See <a href="../../Cataloging/PKtemplates/Using_Cataloging_Templates.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Using Cataloging Templates</span></a> and <a href="../../Acquisitions/PAtemplates/Setting_Up_Templates_for_Acquisitions.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Setting Up Templates for Acquisitions</span></a>.</li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Creating multiple item records for the same title </span>- You can create item records for multiple copies of the same title in one step.

<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Importing records</span>&#160;- You can import bibliographic or authority records to create new records in the Polaris database. Item records can be created automatically from embedded holdings data in imported bibliographic records. See <a href="../../Cataloging/PKimport/Importing_Records.htm#XREF_93409_Importing_Records">Importing Records</a>. </li>
<li value="4"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Creating purchase orders by bulk adding</span>&#160;- You can create new purchase orders by bulk adding titles from a bibliographic record set.

<p>You can create new records from the Polaris Shortcut Bar and from workforms. Although specific details vary depending on the type of record you are creating, the general procedures are the same for all records. </p>
<p>When you enter data to create or modify records in Polaris, be sure to follow the conventions your library has established. For example, your library may have decided to use all capitals for codes and abbreviations, and initial capitals for words. While this may not affect the way Polaris processes information, it does affect the appearance of indexes and reports.</p>

<p><a name="kanchor1449"></a><a name="IX_deleting"></a>If you have the appropriate permissions, you can delete certain kinds of Polaris records. When you delete some types of records, you are permanently removing them from the Polaris database, and they <span class="FM_Emphasis">cannot</span>&#160;be recovered. However, for cataloging records, your Polaris Administrator can set the following profiles to control deletion of these records: <b>Retain Deleted Authority Records, Retain Deleted Bibliographic Records </b>and<b>&#160;Retain Deleted Item Records. </b>If these profiles are set to <b>Yes</b>, cataloging records are marked for deletion, but they are not removed from the Polaris database unless you run a purge process. See <a href="../../Cataloging_Admin/PDKcatalog/Managing_Record_Deletion.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Managing Record Deletion</span></a>.</p>
<p>You can delete records from the Polaris Find Tool, from record sets, from linked list boxes and from workforms. If the record you want to delete is linked to one or more other records, a message tells you that the record cannot be deleted. If you have the required permissions, you can suppress the unbreakable and breakable links messages when you are deleting multiple item, bibliographic, or patron records. This prevents a message from appearing for each record that has these links when you are deleting many records at once. </p>

<p><a name="kanchor232"></a><a name="IX_setting_the_Find_Tool"></a><a name="kanchor233"></a><a name="IX_customizing_by_user"></a>You can customize the Find Tool to <a href="#Save">save default general search criteria</a> and, for bibliographic record searches, to <a href="#Save2">save default remote search databases</a>.</p>
<p>Your custom default search settings are associated with your user account and are used each time you sign in with your user ID. You can change your default search settings at any time.</p>
<h2><a name="Save"></a>Save Default General Search Criteria</h2>
<p>You can set the Find Tool to default to the same selections in the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by, Type, Sort by</b>, and<b>&#160;Limit by </b>boxes<b>&#160;</b>each time you search for the same type of record. </p>
<p>Values that can be selected from drop-down lists are also saved, but free-text values are not. For example, if you select <b>Genre</b>&#160;in the <b>Search by</b>&#160;or <b>Limit by</b>&#160;box, enter a free-text value, and select <b>Save as User Default</b> &gt; <b>Genre</b>&#160;will be retained, but not the free-text value.</p>
<p>To customize the Find Tool:</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">Open the Find Tool.</li>
<li value="2">Select the record type you want to find.</li>
<li value="3">Select an option from the list in the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by </b>box.</li>
<li value="4">If you want the search results sorted the same way every time you search for that type of record, select an option in the <b>Sort by</b> box.</li>
<li value="5">If you want the search results limited in the same way every time you search for that type of record, select an option in the <b>Limit by </b>box, and select a value in the <b>Limit by</b> values box.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>Limit by values selected from a drop-down list are saved in the user default, but free-text values are not saved. For example, if the <b>Limit by</b>&#160;selection is <b>Subject</b>&#160;and you enter <b>history</b>&#160;in the <b>Values</b>&#160;box, the value is not saved. </p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="6">Select <b>Options &gt; Save as User Default</b> from the Find Tool menu bar.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>If you save a Power search as the user default, the Find Tool will open to the Power Search tab the next time you search for the same type of record, but the search criteria are not saved.</p>
<p class="indent2">The Find Tool is customized to search for the record by the option you selected in the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>&#160;box. To set the Search by option back to the default for the record type, select <b>Revert to System Default</b>. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>If you set user defaults for the bibliographic or item record Find Tool, these defaults are in effect in the Find Tool shortcuts (<b>F12 </b>for bibs<b>&#160;</b>and <b>Ctrl+Alt+F9 </b>for items).</p>
<h2><a name="Save2"></a>Save Default Remote Search Databases</h2>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>Default search databases can only be saved for bibliographic record searches.</p>
<p>To save default search databases: </p>
<ol>
<li value="1">Open the Find Tool for bibliographic records and navigate to the <b>Databases</b> tab.</li>
<li value="2">Select the remote databases you would like to search.</li>
<li value="3">Select <b>Options</b> &gt; <b>Save as User Default</b>.</li>
<p>Polaris saves your preferred remote search databases. When you open the Find Tool for bibliographic records in the future, your preferred search databases are already selected.</p>
</ol>
<p>To clear saved default search databases:</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">Open the Find Tool for bibliographic records, and navigate to the <b>Databases</b> tab.</li>
<li value="2"><b>Select Options</b> &gt;&#160;<b>Revert to System Default</b>.</li>

<p><a name="kanchor1154"></a><a name="IX_See_power_searching"></a><a name="kanchor1155"></a><a name="IX_described_6"></a>With power searching, you can construct complex, precise searches by writing Common Command Language (CCL) queries. Power searching is a good way to list records that share a combination of very specific characteristics. To construct a power search, you can begin with a basic search expression and then add more search expressions to it, or you can write the entire query.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>You can do complex searches for cataloging records and have Polaris format the information you provide into CCL for you. See <a href="Scoping_Searches_for_Bibs_and_Items.htm#XREF_44768_Scoping">Scoping Searches for Bibs and Items</a>.</p>

<h2><a name="TOC_Setting_Up_CCL_Queries"></a><a name="XREF_66282_Setting_Up_CCL"></a>Setting Up CCL Queries</h2>
<p>CCL queries in the Find Tool consist of one or more search expressions. Each search expression is a search string and a series of symbols and operators specifying the desired search results. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>You can change the time out for the search from the default of 30 seconds to another length of time by typing TIMEOUT=(number). For example, if you want to search for United States and increase the time out to 60 seconds, type:<br /><b>KW=United States and TIMEOUT=60</b></p>
<p>A search expression includes the following components:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Access point</span>&#160;- A search field identifier, such as author or title. Also known as a qualifier.</p>
</li>
<li value="2">
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Operator</span>&#160;- The logical link between an access point and a search string, or between search expressions.</p>
</li>
<li value="3">
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Search string</span>&#160;- A string of characters identifying the item for which you are searching. Also known as an item description, search term, or value. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b>The following query, composed of two search expressions linked by <span class="FM_Emphasis">AND</span>, finds the works of author Asimov published in or after 1970:<br /><b><br />AU=asimov AND PD &gt;= 1970<br /></b><br />where<br /><span class="FM_Emphasis"><br />AU</span>&#160;and <span class="FM_Emphasis">PD</span> are access points (Author and Publication Date)<br /><span class="FM_Emphasis">=</span>, <span class="FM_Emphasis">AND, &gt;=</span> are operators<br /><span class="FM_Emphasis">asimov</span>&#160;and <span class="FM_Emphasis">1970</span> are search strings</p>
<p>You can group search expressions with parentheses to direct the order of operations.</p>
<h2><a name="TOC_Mnemonic_Codes_for"></a><a name="XREF_89665_Mnemonic_Codes_for"></a>Mnemonic Codes for Access Points</h2>
<p>When you are creating queries, you must use the mnemonic code, and not the full term, for the following access points:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note</b>:<br />Branches and collections are available only with normal searches.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p>Find Tool <b>Search by</b> options</p>
</li>

</li>
<li value="3">

<li value="4">
<p>Collection (COL) - Click the <b>Collections</b>&#160;tab on the Find Tool to see the abbreviations for your system.</p>
</li>
<li value="5">
<p>Assigned Branch (AB) - Click the <b>Branches</b>&#160;tab on the Find Tool to see the abbreviations for your system.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="TOC_CCL_Operators"></a><a name="XREF_85017_CCL_Operators"></a>CCL Operators</h2>
<p>The following are CCL operators:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Boolean (logical) operators</span>&#160;- AND, OR, NOT logically connect items</p>
</li>
<li value="2">
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Proximity (nearness) operators</span> - Specify the&#160;location of and distance between items</p>
</li>
<li value="3">
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Relational operators</span>&#160;- Specify comparative relationships between items, such as greater than, less than, or equal to</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="XREF_49793_Boolean_Operators"></a>Boolean Operators</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor1156"></a><a name="IX_in_power_searching"></a><a name="kanchor1157"></a><a name="IX_Boolean_operators"></a>The Boolean operators AND, OR, and NOT combine search expressions in logical sequences:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p>AND - A record must match both the search expression before and the expression after the operator to be included in the search results.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b><b>AU=isaac asimov AND TI=planets<br /></b>
<br />Finds only the items written by Isaac Asimov that have the word <span class="FM_Emphasis">planets</span>&#160;in the title.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p>OR - A record must match either the search expression before or the expression after the operator, or both, to be included in the search results.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b><b>AU=isaac asimov OR TI=planets<br /></b>
<br />Finds all items written by Isaac Asimov and all items with the word <span class="FM_Emphasis">planets</span>&#160;in the title by any author.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p>NOT - A record must match the search expression before the operator, but not the expression after the operator to be included in the search results. The expression after the operator must be enclosed in parentheses.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b><b>AU=isaac asimov NOT (TI=planets)<br /><br /></b>Finds only those items written by Isaac Asimov that do not have the word <span class="FM_Emphasis">planets</span> in the title.</p>
<p>You may build a more complex query using the Boolean operators. When using multiple operators in the same query, use parentheses to group the search expressions so that they are done in the correct order, from left to right.</p>
<h2><a name="XREF_45543_Proximity_Operators"></a>Proximity Operators</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor1158"></a><a name="IX_in_power_searching_1"></a><a name="kanchor1159"></a><a name="IX_proximity_operators"></a>The proximity operators N, Nn, W, and Wn&#160;specify the relative position of search terms in the search results. Proximity operators are used with a number representing the distance between the two terms (the proximity distance). Adjacent terms have a proximity distance equal to 1, and the default proximity relation is LE (less than or equal to).</p>
<p>If the proximity operator begins with <b>N</b>, it indicates the search terms may be separated by the specified number of words in any order. For example, a power search for <b>KW="United States" N2:EQ</b>&#160;<b>KW="Union"</b>&#160;searches for records where the phrase <b>United States</b>&#160;appears exactly two words before or after the keyword <b>Union</b>.</p>
<p>If the proximity operator begins with <b>W</b>, it indicates the search terms must be within the specified number of words in the specified order. For example, a power search for <b>KW="Harry Potter" W10:LT KW="J.K. Rowling" </b>searches for records where the phrase <b>Harry Potter</b>&#160;appears less than 10 words before the phrase <b>J.K. Rowling</b>.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p>N or % - Indicates the search terms should be next to each other in any order. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Examples:<br /></b><b>AU="james" N AU="joyce"<br />AU="james" % AU="joyce"<br /><br /></b>Finds any items with authors that have the names <span class="FM_Emphasis">James</span>&#160;and <span class="FM_Emphasis">Joyce</span>&#160;next to each other, such as <span class="FM_Emphasis">James Joyce</span>&#160;or <span class="FM_Emphasis">Joyce James</span>.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p>N<span class="FM_Emphasis">n - </span>Indicates the search terms may be separated by the specified number of words (<span style="font-style: italic;">n</span>) in any order, where <span class="FM_Emphasis">n</span>&#160;is a number between 1 and 9. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b><b>AU="james" N4 AU="joyce"<br /><br /></b>Finds any items with authors that have the names <span class="FM_Emphasis">James</span>&#160;within four words of the name <span class="FM_Emphasis">Joyce</span>, such as <span class="FM_Emphasis">James C.

<p><a name="kanchor1162"></a><a name="IX_using_in_power_searches"></a><a name="kanchor1163"></a><a name="IX_wildcard_characters"></a>You can use the following special characters to search for character pattern matches to the item description:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>Enter as much of the base search term as you can because the shorter the base, the more imprecise the search. For example, entering <b>bee*</b>&#160;can yield search results of <b>bees</b>, <b>beer</b>, or <b>Beecher</b>.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Question mark (<span class="FM_BulletHead">?</span>)&#160;- Indicates 0 or more characters. For example, type <b>child?</b>&#160;to find <span class="FM_Emphasis">child</span>, <span class="FM_Emphasis">children</span>, <span class="FM_Emphasis">childs</span>, and so forth.</li>

<li value="3">Number sign (<b><span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">#</span></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal;">)</span></b> - Indicates 0 or 1 character. For example, type <b>wash#</b> to find <b>wash</b>, <b>washi</b>, <b>washy</b>, and so forth.</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="TOC_Quotation_Marks_in_Power"></a><a name="XREF_55116_Stop_Words"></a>Quotation Marks in Power Searching</h2>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>You can enclose any search string in quotation marks. If you are not sure whether to enclose the search string in quotation marks, you can always safely use them.</p>
<p>Strings containing the following words and characters must be enclosed in quotation marks if they are used as part of an item description in a CCL search:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b><a name="kanchor1164"></a>Tip:</b>
<br />The number sign (#) is treated as a single-character wildcard and not as the character itself. Therefore, a power search for TI="#*" does not limit the results to records with # in the title. Instead, use an embedded SQL search with 9999 as the Bib-1 Use attribute for ADHOC.<br /><br />To search for bibliographic records with <b>#</b> in the title, enter the following in the Power Search Criteria box: <br /><br /> [9999]="SELECT RecordID FROM Z3950_AP_BR_TI_S WHERE Term LIKE '#%'"<br /><br />To search for item records with <b>#</b> in the title, enter the following in the Power Search Criteria box:<br /><br /> [9999]="SELECT RecordID FROM Z3950_AP_IR_TI_S WHERE Term LIKE '#%'"</p>

You can also press <b>F12</b>&#160;from anywhere in the Polaris staff client application to open the Find Tool and search for bibliographic records, or <b>Ctrl+Alt+F9</b> to search for item records.</p>
<p>When the Find Tool opens, select the type of record to search for (object), the access point to search by, and the type of search. Then type the word or phrase to use for the search. In addition, you can use various options on the Find Tool to narrow your search results, specify how to sort the results, or get a simple count of the number of records. </p>
<p>Depending on the type of record, you can display the records in the Find Tool results list and add them to a record set, or select <b>Count only</b>&#160;and add them all to a record set without having to display them in a list. If you want to add specific records to a record set, you can display them in the results list, right-click the selected records, and select <b>Add to Record Set </b>from the context menu.</p>
<p>If you usually search for records using the same criteria, you can save the search options as your user default. For example, if you usually search for bibliographic records by title and limit the search by material type, you can set this up as your default. You can also specify sorting options as part of your user default. Each time you search for bibliographic records, the options are set automatically. For more information, see <a href="Customize_the_Find_Tool_by_user.htm#XREF_49552_Customize_the_Find">Customize the Find Tool by user</a>.</p>
<p>You can have multiple Find Tools open at once. The title bar of each Find Tool displays the object and access point selected for that search. For example, if you are searching for an item record by barcode, the title bar displays<b> Item Records - Barcode Find Tool</b>.</p>

<p>When you select a record type in the Object&#160;box and an access point in the Search by box, Keyword search&#160;appears in the Type&#160;list if available for this combination of record type and access point. </p>
<p>For some types of records, keyword searching is available because the selected Search by&#160;access point actually searches in linked records. For example, when you search by Title&#160;for a line item in a selection list, purchase order, or invoice, Keyword search&#160;appears in the Type&#160;box because the system searches for the line item by the title in the linked bibliographic record. </p>
<p>Keyword searching is available for the following types of records (depending on the selection in the Search by box):</p>
<ul>
<li value="1">Acquisitions<ul><li value="1">Claims</li><li value="2">Invoice Line Items</li><li value="3">Purchase Order Line Items</li><li value="4">Selection List Line Items</li></ul></li>

<h1><a name="XREF_76413_Using_Find_Tool"></a><a name="kanchor3692"></a>Polaris Find Tool Overview</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor3693"></a><a name="IX_overview_1"></a>With over 600 access points as well as relevancy ranking, sorting, limiting, proximity searching, CCL queries, scoping, SQL searches, and automatic suggestions, the Polaris Find Tool provides search options for all types of tasks. You can save user defaults for the types of searches you do most often. </p>
<p>The “count only” option gives you a simple count, such as the number of DVDs in a certain collection, without returning the search result list. You can add records to a record set from a “count only” search without returning the records in a the results list, or you can select the records from the results list and put them in a record set.</p>
<p>Your library can set up Z39.50 targets for external databases that you can search directly from the Find Tool - allowing you to save new records to the local database in one step.</p>
<p>If you have the required permissions, you can create and save a SQL search in the Polaris Find Tool. SQL searches are used for data retrieval only; data cannot be manipulated through the Find Tool. Once a SQL query is saved, other staff members can use the saved search even if they do not have permission to create and save one. </p>
<p>In addition to the many methods and access points available for searching in the Find Tool, you can perform tasks on single or multiple records listed in search results, provided you have the required permissions. If you select a single record, you can select <b>Links</b>&#160;to access the linked records. From the bibliographic search results, you can select <b>Preview</b>&#160;to see the titles circulation statistics. Other options include checking in multiple serial issues and bulk-changing multiple item records. </p>
<p>You can also use the Polaris Find Tool to create quick reports from the search results list. For example, if the library needs to see a list of items in a certain collection that have not circulated in the last three years, you can create a report in the Find Tool by printing the results list. </p>

<p>When you search for bibliographic or item records, all the Find Tool tabs are displayed: <b>General</b>, <b>Settings</b>, <b>Scoping</b>, <b>Branches</b>, <b>Collections</b>, and <b>Databases</b>.</p>
<p>All tabs are also displayed when you search for an object that has bibliographic or item records in the <b>Object</b>&#160;list. For example, when you search for Community Records, Bibliographic Records or Item Records can be selected in the <b>Object</b> list.</p>
<p>However, if the tab cannot be used in the context of the search, a message appears on the tab. For example, if you are searching for a bibliographic record using a Browse search type, and you select the Scoping tab, the message <b>Scoping is not applicable in this context</b>&#160;appears. </p>
<p>For most other records (objects), such as Acquisitions, Serials, and Patron records, only the General and Settings tabs are displayed.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_44768_Scoping"></a>Scoping Searches for Bibs and Items</h1>
<p>Scoping is a method of further focusing your search beyond the basic search expression. Scoping, like power searching, allows you to conduct complex, precise searches with the Common Command Language (CCL). However, power searching requires you to know CCL and write your own queries. With scoping, you select the access points (qualifiers), operators, and search strings (values), and Polaris formats the information into CCL. You can use scoping with exact match, keyword, and phrase searches for bibliographic and item records.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor4344"></a><a name="IX_searching_with"></a>To do a complex, precise search by scoping:</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">On the Find Tool - General tabbed page, fill in the <b>Object</b>, <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>, <b>Type</b>, and <b>For</b>&#160;boxes (see <a href="Doing_a_Basic_Search.htm#XREF_49933_Doing_a_Basic">Doing a Basic Search</a>).</li>
</ol>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="2">Click the <b>Scoping </b>tab to display the Scoping tabbed page. The search expression you created on the General tabbed page appears in the <b>Current Criteria</b> box.</li>
</ol>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="3">Choose one of the following Boolean operators (see <a href="Doing_Power_Searches.htm#XREF_49793_Boolean_Operators">Boolean Operators</a>):<ul type="disc"><li value="1">If the search results must match both search expressions, click <b>And</b>.</li><li value="2">If the search results can match either search expression, click <b>Or</b>.</li><li value="3">If the search results must match the first search expression, but not the second one, click <b>Not</b>.</li></ul></li>
</ol>
<ol start="4">
<li value="4">Select an access point or modifier in the <b>Qualifier</b> box.</li>
<li value="5">Choose one of the following relative operators:</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>You can choose <b>[=]</b>&#160;or <b>[&lt;&gt;]</b>&#160;for all the qualifiers.<br />You can choose the following relative operators for the Publication date only:&#160;<b>[&lt;]</b>, <b>[&lt;=]</b>, <b>[&gt;]</b>, or <b>[&gt;=]</b>. </p>

<ol>
<li value="1"><a name="kanchor5012"></a><a name="IX_See_searching"></a>Open the Find Tool using one of these methods:</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li value="1">
<p>Select a menu option from the Polaris Shortcut Bar.</p>
</li>
<li value="2">
<p>Click <b>Find</b> on a workform.</p>
</li>
<li value="3">
<p>If you are searching for a bibliographic record, press <b>F12</b>.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="indent2">The General tabbed page of the Find Tool appears.</p>
<ol start="2">
<li value="2">If the object selected is not what you wanted to search for, select the record type to search for in the <b>Object</b> box.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>To quickly locate an item in a list box, type the first letter. For example, to search by genre, open the <b>Search by</b>&#160;list and press <b>G</b>. </p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="3">Select the access point to search by in the <b>Search by</b>&#160;box. </li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor5013"></a><a name="IX_search_by_dates"></a><b>Note:<br /></b>If you select a date option in the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>&#160;box (for example, you are searching for serial issues and select <b>Expected arrival date</b>), the Find Tool displays date range boxes where you select the beginning and ending dates from a calendar.</p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="4">Select the type of search in the <b>Type</b> box.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>If you have selected an access point and a search type, but then decide to change the access point, the search type is retained. For example, if the search type is <b>Keyword</b>&#160;and the access point is <b>Author</b>, you can switch the access point to <b>Title</b>&#160;and the search type will be retained because both access points can be used with keyword searching.</p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="5">If you want to sort the results before they appear in the list, select an option in the <b>Sort by</b> box.</li>
<li value="6">Type a search string in the <b>For</b> box.</li>
</ol>
<p class="indent2"><a name="kanchor5014"></a><a name="IX_retaining_search_string"></a>If you have entered a search string but decide to search for a different object, you can switch the object while retaining the same search string.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example</b>: <br />You search for bibliographic records by author and then you want to search for item records with the same author. You can select <b>Item Records</b>&#160;in the <b>Object</b>&#160;box and the authors name remains in the <b>For</b> box.</p>

</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note</b>:<br />The <b>Value</b>&#160;box lists options for some <b>Limit by</b>&#160;settings, while other settings require a text entry in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box. For example, if you select <b>Language</b>&#160;in the <b>Limit by</b>&#160;box, the <b>Value</b>&#160;box contains a list of languages. If you select <b>Author</b>&#160;in the <b>Limit by</b>&#160;box, you type the authors name in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box. If you enter a portion of a Limit by value, you must enter an asterisk. For example, select <b>Author </b>in the <b>Limit by</b>&#160;box and enter <b>Kin*</b>&#160;in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box to display works by authors named <span class="FM_Emphasis">King</span>, <span class="FM_Emphasis">Kings</span>, <span class="FM_Emphasis">Kingsley</span>, and others. See <a href="Setting_Up_A_Search.htm">Limit By</a>.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor5019"></a><a name="IX_clearing"></a><b>Tip:<br /></b>The results list automatically clears when you start another search. You can also click <b>New Search</b>&#160;to close the results list, return the Find Tool to its default settings, and clear the <b>For</b> box.</p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="8">Click <b>Search</b>&#160;or press <b>ENTER</b>. If you want to cancel the search, click <b>Stop</b>&#160;or start a new search with a different query. The results list appears in the Find Tool window.</li>

Select the <b>Settings</b>&#160;tab, and type a larger number in the <b>Search Timeout (sec.) </b>box. For example, if the timeout is set to 30 seconds, increase it to 60 seconds. The search process continues for 60 seconds, if necessary.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>Check the status line to see if all results are displayed. If not, you can press <b>CTRL+SHIFT+A</b>&#160;to return all results.<br />To sort the list after the results appear, you can click on the column headers.</p>

<p><a name="kanchor804"></a><a name="IX_Find_Tool_tab_overview"></a>When you are searching for bibliographic and item records, you can choose which branches you want Polaris to search, as well as which collections to search within each branch. The Find Tools Branches tabbed page lists all the assigned branches, along with their collections, in your library system. Searches for bibliographic records by branch or collection return results based on the linked item records. If the bibliographic record is not linked to any item records with that assigned branch, it does not appear in the results list on the Branches tab. If the bibliographic record is not linked to any item records with that collection, it does not appear in the results list on the Collections tab. Bibliographic records without linked item records do not appear in the results list. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor805"></a><a name="IX_filtering_1"></a><b>Important:<br /></b>Search results, except for bibliographic titles and call number browse searches, may be filtered so the results list includes only those results that you have permission to access.

If you have a subscription to Polaris ZMARC, the Polaris ZMARC databases appear in the list of databases. You can choose to search the local Polaris database simultaneously along with one or more remote databases.</p>

If a standard Bib-1 Use attribute has not been defined for a search access point, Polaris relies on proprietary Bib-1 Use attributes. (Bib-1 Use attributes between 5,000 and 10,000 are reserved for these proprietary attributes). These non-standard search access points may not work with Z39.50 target sites. For example, the UPC barcode does not have a standard Bib-1 Use attribute. If you search bibliographic records at a Z39.50 target site for the UPC barcode number, setting the <b>Search by</b>&#160;field to <b>UPC number</b>&#160;in the Polaris Find Tool, the search will likely fail. However, if you search for the UPC barcode number by <b>Other system number</b>&#160;(a standard access point), you will likely find the title. For a list of standard and proprietary Bib-1 Use Attributes, see <a href="../../Administration/PDserver/Bib-1_Use_Attributes_in_Polaris_Searches.htm#XREF_83508_Bib_1_Use" data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden">Bib-1 Use Attributes in Polaris Searches</a>.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>Before you are able to search a remote database, it must be registered as a Z39.50 target and set to display in the Find Tool.

<h1><a name="XREF_41652_Send_search"></a>Send Search Results to a Record Set</h1>
<p>Sending search results to a record set is useful if there is some action you want to take on the records. For example, you could search for bibliographic records that do not display in the PAC, send the search results to a record set, and then bulk change the <b>Display in PAC</b>&#160;setting for all the records at once. For more information on the types of records that support record sets, see <a href="../PIrecsets/Creating_and_Using_Record_Sets.htm#XREF_16915_Creating_Records">Creating and Using Record Sets</a>.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>If your search is likely to return more records than the number in the <b>Retrieval Limit </b>box on the Settings tab,<b>&#160;</b>you may want to select <b>Count only </b>or increase the retrieval limit. When you select <b>Count only</b>, the retrieval limit is ignored, and it counts all the records. A warning message appears if the record set that will be created exceeds the limits set in Polaris Administration.</p>
<p>To put search results into a record set:</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">Enter the search criteria for the records on the Find Tool-General tabbed page.</li>
<li value="2">If you want the records to be sent to the record set without displaying them, select <b>Count only</b>. </li>
<li value="3">Select the <b>Settings</b> tab. The Settings tabbed page appears.</li>
<li value="4">Select <b>Send Results to a New Record Set</b>.</li>
<li value="5">Type a name for the record set in the <b>Name</b>&#160;box. </li>
<li value="6">Select the record set owner in the <b>Owner</b> box.</li>
<li value="7">If you want to change the number of records that can be added to a record set before a warning message appears, type a different number in the <b>Warning Size Threshold</b>&#160;box. For example, if you want a warning message to appear only when five thousand or more records are about to be added to the record set, type <b>5000</b>.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>The default threshold is set in Polaris Administration using the Staff Client profile <b>Find Tool/record-set-to-record-set creation: Record set size warning threshold</b>. It applies to record sets created from the Find Tool and record sets created from other record sets. <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">See </span><a href="../../Administration/PDsearch/Set_Find_Tool_defaults.htm#XREF_80616_Set_Find_Tool">Set Find Tool defaults</a><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">.</span>&#160;</p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="8">Click <b>Search.</b> A message asks if you want to open the record set.</li>
<li value="9">Select <b>Yes</b>&#160;to open the record set in the record set workform, or <b>No</b>&#160;to return to the Find Tool results list. You can search for the record set and open it later.</li>
</ol>

<h1><a name="TOC_Setting_Up_a_Search"></a><a name="XREF_94195_Search_Criteria"></a>Set Up a Search</h1>
<p>A search query is a structured request for database information. The simplest query uses default settings, and you simply type a word or phrase to describe the records. This word or phrase might be, for example, a full or partial title, the last name of an author, a patrons name, or a purchase order number.</p>
<p class="KeepWithNext"><a name="kanchor2999"></a><a name="IX_search_criteria"></a><a name="kanchor3000"></a><a name="IX_criteria_for"></a>A standard search query on the Find Tool requires the following four criteria:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Record (<b>Object</b>)</li>
<li value="2">Access point (<b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>)</li>
<li value="3">Type of search (<b>Type</b>)</li>
<li value="4">Search string (<b>For</b>)</li>
</ul>
<p>You can also narrow your search by selecting an option in the <b>Limit by</b>&#160;box, and then a value in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box. To sort the results before they are returned, select an option in the <b>Sort by</b> box. The options in the<b> Limit by</b>&#160;and <b>Sort by</b>&#160;boxes depend on the type of record you selected in the <b>Object</b> box.</p>
<h2>Record (Object)</h2>
<p>The record types that you can select in the <b>Object</b>&#160;box depend on the menu option, workform, or field where you accessed the Find Tool. For example, in a Purchase Order workform, if you click <b>Find</b>&#160;in the Supplier field, the Find Tool opens with <b>Supplier</b>&#160;in the <b>Object </b>box. When you open the Find Tool from the <b>Funds</b>&#160;field, <b>Fund</b> is selected in the<b> Object</b> box.</p>
<h2>Access Point (Search by)</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor3001"></a><a name="IX_search_by_option"></a>You select the access point in the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>&#160;box. The list of access points depends on the record type you selected in the <b>Object</b>&#160;box. For example, access points for bibliographic records include <b>Title</b>, <b>Author</b>, and <b>Subject</b>&#160;(among others). You can set your own default <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by </b>access point for each record type. Then, whenever you log on with your user ID and search for a record using the Find Tool, the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>&#160;option is automatically set for the record type. See <a href="Customize_the_Find_Tool_by_user.htm#XREF_49552_Customize_the_Find">Customize the Find Tool by user</a>. You can set the option back to the system default at any time.</p>
<h3><a name="XREF_58330_Type"></a>Search Type</h3>
<p>The available search types depend on your selections in the <b>Object</b>&#160;box and the <b>Search</b>&#160;<b>by</b>&#160;box. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor3002"></a><a name="IX_indexed_for_title"></a><a name="kanchor3003"></a><a name="IX_indexed_MARC_fields"></a><a name="kanchor3004"></a><a name="IX_title_searching"></a><b>Tip:<br /></b>When you do a title search, Polaris checks fields in the bibliographic record indexed for title searching, such as the 245, 246, 440, and 740 tags.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Exact match (implicitly truncated)</span>&#160;- Displays all the records beginning with<span style="font-weight: bold;">&#160;</span>the letters or numbers in the <b>For</b>&#160;box. No asterisk is needed after the term in this type of search. However, you may want to enter an asterisk before the search term. See <a href="#XREF_95558_Using_Wildcard">Using Wildcard Characters in Searches</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b>Type <b>energy</b>&#160;in the <b>For</b>&#160;box for a bibliographic title search. The results list includes all titles that begin with <span class="FM_Emphasis">energy</span>. </p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Exact match (explicitly truncated)</span>&#160;- Displays only the records that exactly match the letters or numbers in the <b>For</b>&#160;box. If you use an asterisk, the Results list displays the same records as those of an implicitly truncated search.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b>Type <b>energy</b>&#160;in the <b>For</b>&#160;box for a bibliographic title search. The results list includes only items titled <span class="FM_Emphasis">energy</span>.<br />If you type <b>energy*</b>, the results are the same as for an implicit search of <span class="FM_Emphasis">energy</span>.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Browse</span>&#160;- Display the specified index headings, beginning with entries that start with text similar to the text in the <b>For</b>&#160;box. For example, a browse title search for <span class="FM_Emphasis">trains</span>&#160;displays the portion of the title index containing the first title that starts with <span class="FM_Emphasis">trains</span>. Browse searching is Unicode-compliant, so you can enter diacritics or special characters and the headings display that begin with the characters. See <a href="Doing_a_Browse_Search.htm#XREF_23758_Doing_Browse">Doing a Browse Search.</a></li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Keyword search</span>&#160;- Finds records that include the exact search term or terms you input, in any order. There is an implied <span class="FM_Emphasis">and</span>&#160;between multiple words. For example, a keyword title search for <span class="FM_Emphasis">trains</span>&#160;displays a list of items that have the word <span class="FM_Emphasis">trains</span>&#160;anywhere in the title. See <a href="Doing_a_Keyword_Search.htm#XREF_92439_Doing_Keyword">Doing a Keyword Search</a>.</li>
<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Phrase search</span>&#160;- A special kind of keyword search for multiple words in the exact order in which you entered them. See <a href="Doing_a_Phrase_Search.htm#XREF_22340_Doing_Phrase">Doing a Phrase Search</a>.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Sort By</h2>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>The <b>Sort by </b>option is not available for browse searching.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor3005"></a><a name="IX_sorting_by_relevance"></a><a name="kanchor3006"></a><a name="IX_sorting_by_in_the_Find"></a><a name="kanchor3007"></a><a name="IX_sort_by_option"></a><a name="kanchor3008"></a><a name="IX_option_in_the_Find_Tool"></a>If you want search results to display in a specific order, you can select an option in the <b>Sort by</b>&#160;box. The sort option can be part of your user default settings when you are searching for a specific type of record. For information on setting a user default search, see <a href="Customize_the_Find_Tool_by_user.htm#XREF_49552_Customize_the_Find">Customize the Find Tool by user</a>. </p>
<p>The available options in the <b>Sort by</b>&#160;box depend on the record. For example, if you are searching for a bibliographic record, you can select from the following sort options:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Author</li>
<li value="2">Author, the Publication Date</li>
<li value="3">Author, then Title

</li>
<li value="20">Type of Material
</li>
</ul>
<h2><a name="XREF_48264_For"></a>Search String (For)</h2>
<p>You specify the search string in the <b>For</b>&#160;box by typing one or more characters. Polaris ignores letter case, multiple spaces, and all punctuation (except quotation marks) entered in the <b>For</b>&#160;box. The search does consider special characters and diacritics. Consider the following when entering text in the <b>For</b> box:</p>
<h2><a name="kanchor3009"></a><a name="IX_in_search_text_1"></a><a name="kanchor3010"></a><a name="IX_in_search_text"></a><a name="kanchor3011"></a><a name="IX_initial_articles"></a>Initial articles</h2>
<p>If the <b>Use Initial Articles Table</b>&#160;check box is checked on the Settings tab, the initial article in a title is ignored or “stripped out” if that article is defined in the <a href="../../Administration/PDsearch/Defining_Leading_Articles.htm#XREF_82536_Defining_Leading" data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden">Defining Leading Articles</a>). </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b>Searching for <span style="font-style: italic;">The Great Gatsby</span>&#160;yields the same results as searching for <span style="font-style: italic;">Great Gatsby</span>. </p>
<p>The check box is used when the search type is <b>Exact match</b>&#160;(either implicitly or explicitly truncated), and you are searching for the following records:</p>
<ul>
<li value="1">Authority Records (Heading, Tracing/Reference)</li>
<li value="2">Bibliographic Records (Title and Series)</li>
<li value="3">Check In Records (Title)</li>
<li value="4">Claims (Title) (both for Acquisitions and Serial versions)</li>
<li value="5">Course Reserve Records (Title)</li>
<li value="6">Hold Requests (Title)</li>
<li value="7">ILL Requests (Title)</li>
<li value="8">Invoice Line Items (Title)</li>
<li value="9">Issue Records (Title)</li>
<li value="10">Item Records (Title and Series)</li>
<li value="11">Part Records (Title)</li>
<li value="12">Purchase Order Line Items (Title)</li>
<li value="13">Reserve Item Records (Title)</li>
<li value="14">Route Lists (Title)</li>
<li value="15">Selection List Line Items (Title)</li>
<li value="16">Serial Holdings Records (Title)</li>
<li value="17">Subscription Records (Title)</li>
</ul>
<h2>Reusing a search string</h2>
<p>All the search strings you type in the <b>For</b>&#160;box are retained during a Polaris session. To use a search string for another search, select the string in the <b>For</b>&#160;box.</p>
<p><span class="FM_BulletHead">Using an implicitly truncated search</span>&#160;- A title search for “bulletin” could be done using the following string: <b>bulle</b>.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor3012"></a><a name="IX_using_in_phrase_and"></a><b>Note:<br /></b>If you can use an ampersand (&amp;) in a search string for phrase and keyword searching, it is equivalent to the word <b>and</b>. The ampersand and the word <b>and</b> are not interchangeable for exact match or browse searching.</p>
<h2><a name="kanchor3013"></a><a name="IX_using_wildcard_characters"></a><a name="kanchor3014"></a><a name="IX_using_wildcard"></a><a name="kanchor3015"></a><a name="IX_searching_using_wildcard"></a><a name="XREF_95558_Using_Wildcard"></a>Using Wildcard Characters in Searches</h2>
<p>Wildcard characters are the special characters asterisk <b>* </b>or question mark <b>?</b>, which<b>&#160;</b>you can use in a search to represent the rest of the word in keyword and exact match - implicitly truncated searches. A wildcard character is not necessary after the search term in an exact match - implicitly truncated search because the truncation is implied. However, you may want to enter an asterisk before your search term if you are not sure if something comes before the search term. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Examples:<br /></b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Keyword searching </span>- The entry <b>King*</b>&#160;for a keyword author search yields results such as <span class="FM_Emphasis">King</span>, <span class="FM_Emphasis">Kingsley</span>, and <span class="FM_Emphasis">Kingford</span>. The entry *King* for a keyword author search yields results such as <span style="font-style: italic;">Talking Heads</span>, <span style="font-style: italic;">Dykinga</span>, and <span style="font-style: italic;">Polkinghorne</span>. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Exact match (implicitly truncated) -</b>The entry <b>material</b>&#160;for a selection list line item notes search gets no search results. However<span style="font-weight: bold;"> *material</span>&#160;finds the selection list line item that has the note: <b>This is printed music, but the material type is set to 28 Youth</b>. The search finds the results because it looks for <b>material</b> anywhere in the note.</p>
<h2><a name="XREF_97631_Limit_By"></a>Limit By</h2>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>The <b>Limit by </b>option is not available in Browse searches.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor3016"></a><a name="IX_limiting_by_in_the_Find"></a><a name="kanchor3017"></a><a name="IX_entering_values"></a>You can limit your search to narrow the results. For example, you can search for a title and limit the format to <b>DVD</b>. Some <b>Limit by</b>&#160;options have pre-set selections in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box. For example, if you select <b>Language</b>, a list of languages appears in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box. But, if you select <b>Author</b>, you type the authors name in the <b>Value</b>&#160;box. You must be precise when you enter free text in the <b>Value </b>box because there is no implicit truncation. When you enter only a part of the value you want to limit by, you must also enter an asterisk. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b>If you are searching for item records by title, and you limit by <b>Current borrower</b>, type the patrons name in the <b>Value</b> box in these formats:<br /><b><br />last name* <br /><br />last name, first name* <br /><br />last name, first name middle name<br /></b><br />You must include the comma and the wildcard character as shown. The last name alone will not work in the <b>Value</b> box.</p>
<p>The specific languages listed in the <b>Value </b>box are set in the <b>MARC Language Scoping Display</b>&#160;policy table. This list is used if the Staff Client profile <b>Find tool: Use language scoping display</b>&#160;is set to <b>Yes</b>&#160;in Polaris Administration. See <a href="../../Administration/PDsearch/Setting_Language_Display.htm#XREF_14545_Setting_Language" data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden">Setting Language Display</a></p>

<h1><a name="XREF_20613_Doing_an_Sequel"></a>Setting Up SQL Searches</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor3143"></a><a name="IX_SQL_searching_permissions"></a><a name="kanchor3144"></a><a name="IX_permissions_for"></a><a name="kanchor3145"></a><a name="IX_SQL_searching"></a><a name="kanchor3146"></a><a name="IX_Find_Tool_3"></a>You can do a search for records using Structured Query Language (SQL). SQL is a computer language used to create, modify, retrieve and manipulate data from relational database management systems, such as Polaris.&#160;In the Polaris Find Tool, SQL is used for data retrieval only. You cannot manipulate data in the Polaris database through SQL searching.</p>
<p> To use all the options for SQL searching in the Find Tool, you must have permissions set in Polaris Administration. Separate permissions are required for accessing the SQL searching mode and saving search strings to the database. See <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden"><a href="../../Administration/PDpermiss/Permission_Strategies.htm#XREF_14878_Special">Special Permissions for SQL Searches in the Find Tool</a></MadCap:conditionalText>.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>You can save text, even if it is not a legitimate SQL search, as a rough SQL template that users can use as a basis for searching. They can edit the search in the Search Criteria box without saving the changes to the template.</p>
<p>In the Polaris Find Tool, the SQL query must use the following structure: <b>SELECT</b>&#160;<span style="font-style: italic;">Column</span>&#160;<b>From</b>&#160;<span style="font-style: italic;">Table</span>&#160;<b>Where</b>&#160;<span style="font-style: italic;">Limit criteria</span>. The column name must match the column name in the database. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Examples:<br /><br /></b>To find item records without an assigned collection, type: <b>SELECT ItemRecordID FROM CircItemRecords WHERE AssignedCollectionID IS NULL</b><br /><b><br /></b>To find item records with no statistical code, type:<b>SELECT ItemRecordID FROM CircItemRecords WHERE StatisticalCodeID IS NULL</b><br /><b><br /></b>To find item records with the circulation status of Lost, type:<b>SELECT ItemRecordID FROM CircItemRecords WHERE ItemStatusID = 7</b><br /><b><br /></b><a name="kanchor3147"></a><a name="IX_searching_for_item"></a><a name="kanchor3148"></a><a name="IX_searching_for_temporary"></a>To find item records that have a temporary shelf location, type:<b>SELECT ItemRecordID FROM ItemRecordDetails WHERE TemporaryShelfLocation IS not NULL</b><br /><br />To find patron records where the registration expiration date is before or equal to October 31, 2009, type:<b>SELECT PatronID from PatronRegistration WHERE ExpirationDate &lt;= '10/31/09'</b><br /><br /><br /></p>
<p class="KeepWithNext">The <b>SELECT </b>command retrieves zero or more rows from one or more tables in a database. Commonly available keywords related to <b>SELECT </b>include: </p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p><b>FROM </b>- Indicates the tables from which the data is to be taken, as well as how the tables join to each other. </p>
</li>
<li value="2">
<p><b>WHERE </b>- Identifies which rows to retrieve, or applied to <b>GROUP BY</b>. </p>
</li>
<li value="3">
<p><b>GROUP BY </b>- Combines rows with related values into elements of a smaller set of rows. </p>
</li>
<li value="4">
<p><b>HAVING</b>&#160;- Identifies which of the “combined rows” are to be retrieved. <b>HAVING</b>&#160;acts much like <b>WHERE</b>, but it operates on the results of the <b>GROUP BY </b>function. </p>
</li>
<li value="5">
<p><b>ORDER BY</b>&#160;- Identifies which columns are used to sort the resulting data. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>When the search results are displayed, you can print the results for a quick report. <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden"><a href="../PIgetstart/Print_search_results_from_the_Find_Tool.htm#XREF_64370_Print_selected">Print search results from the Find Tool</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>

To display linked records from an open workform, press <b>ALT+L</b>&#160;and type the first letter of the type of record, or select <b>Links, Existing</b>&#160;and select the type of record. </p>
<p>You can also right-click a record listed in Find Tool search results to open the context menu, and then select <b>Links</b> and the type of record. For more information about using the Find Tool, see <a href="../PIfindrec/Finding_Polaris_Records.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Finding Polaris Records</span></a>.</p>

<p>If only one record is linked to the record in the workform or in the Find Tool results list, it opens in the appropriate workform. If there are multiple linked records, they are listed in a linked list box.</p>
<p>In a linked list box, you can click a column heading to sort the list; drag a column border to expand the column; or select a record or records and perform a function. Depending on the type of record, you can select multiple or all records in a linked list box, right-click, and select an action to perform on all the selected records. For example, you can display all the linked item records for a bibliographic record in the Linked Item Records dialog box, and add them all to a record set in one step.

For workstations running Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10, you can modify your computer<span style="font-size: 9.0pt;"></span>s magnification setting from the default Small (100%) to Medium (125%) or Large (150%), and the Polaris UI will reflect these changes. (This is not supported in Terminal Services.) In addition, customers who have large monitors can change the screen resolution to 1024 x 768 or above. </p>
<p>However, when the resolution is set at 1024 x 768 or below, and you change the magnification from the default Small (100%) to Medium (125%) or Large (150%), some workforms may be partially obscured. If the resolution is set above 1024 x 768, you can increase the magnification above the default (100%) to enlarge the workforms while still fitting them to the screen.</p>
<p>The resolution and magnification settings also affect the page orientation when printing workform views. If the current resolution and magnification settings on a workstation make the workform view printout too large to fit in portrait, the view is printed in landscape orientation. For more information, see <a href="Printing_Records.htm#XREF_51203_Printing_Records">Printing Records</a>.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor353"></a><a name="IX_as_rotating_staff"></a>When you log on to Polaris, the settings in effect are determined by the branch with which your user name is associated. In addition, the permissions associated with your logon ID and the workstation determine what Polaris tasks you can do. If you work at multiple branches, you select a branch name at log-on to be sure the settings are appropriate for the branch where you are working.</p>
<p>For libraries that use a training server, the Polaris Administrator can set an alert message to staff members that they are logging into the training server. Or, the Polaris Administrator can set different workform colors to distinguish the training server from the production server.</p>
<p>If automatic logon is enabled for the workstation, the logon dialog box is skipped, and you are automatically logged on to the Polaris application using Windows Active Directory.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_71129_Using_Polaris"></a>Using Polaris Workforms</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor989"></a><a name="IX_described_2"></a><a name="kanchor990"></a><a name="IX_overview"></a>In Polaris, the windows where you create, view, and edit records are called workforms. Each workform has its own menu bar and toolbar for performing the tasks related to the record or records displayed in the workform. Some workforms display a single record, such as the Bibliographic Record workform, and you can edit only the data related to that record. Other workforms, such as the Bibliographic Record Set workform, list more than one record and you can perform actions on multiple records from the same workform.</p>
<p>Workforms have color-coded banners along the left side that correspond to the subsystem. For example, the Bibliographic Record workform has a dark blue banner.</p>

<h2><a name="TOC_Workform_Features"></a><a name="XREF_51257_Workform_Features"></a>Workform Features</h2>
<p><a name="kanchor994"></a><a name="IX_common_features"></a>All Polaris workforms have a menu bar and a tool bar with options to perform tasks on the displayed record, link to other records, create new records, see record properties, and get online help. Many workforms have more than one view, and you change the workform view by selecting an option from the <b>View</b>&#160;menu, by clicking an icon on the left banner of the workform, or by pressing <b>CTRL+TAB</b>&#160;on the keyboard. The status bar at the bottom of a workform displays information such as <b>The</b>&#160;<b>record was saved successfully</b>.</p>
<p>Workforms contain fields in the form of drop-down list boxes, text boxes, check boxes, date pickers, or other types of controls. For more information on entering dates in Polaris workforms, see <a href="#XREF_63933_Using_Date_Pickers" class="FMxrefs">Using Date Pickers</a>.</p>
<p>You can move from one field to another in a workform using the mouse or the <b>TAB </b>key. If you use the <b>TAB</b>&#160;key to go to a list box, press the <b>ALT </b>key and the down arrow key to open the list box.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor995"></a><a name="IX_resizing"></a><a name="kanchor996"></a><a name="IX_workforms_list_boxes"></a>You can enter or edit data in boxes with a white background; boxes with gray backgrounds are read-only for system-generated information or information that you cannot edit. Bold labels indicate required fields, and the record cannot be saved without information in these fields. If the bottom right corner of the workform has a dotted arrow <img alt="resize.gif" style="margin-bottom: -4.500pt;width: 30;height: 26;" id="image5" src="resize_30x26.gif" />, you can resize the workform by dragging the corner. </p>
<p><a name="kanchor997"></a><a name="IX_launched_from_a_workform"></a><a name="kanchor998"></a><a name="IX_within_a_workform"></a>If a workform has a <b>Find</b>&#160;button, the Find Tool opens with the appropriate type of record selected. For example, the <b>Title</b>&#160;field on the Item Record workform has a <b>Find </b>button that opens the Find Tool with <b>Bibliographic Records</b>&#160;selected in the <b>Object</b>&#160;box. For more information about the Polaris Find Tool, see <a href="../PIfindrec/Finding_Polaris_Records.htm#XREF_30000_Finding_Polaris">Finding Polaris Records</a>.</p>

The Polaris Shortcut Bar consists of a menu bar with menus organized by subsystem, and a toolbar with round icons that provide alternate ways to access Polaris functions. </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tips:<br /></b>Use the following shortcut keys to access menus:<br /><b>ALT+F - File <br />ALT+A - Acquisitions<br />ALT+S - Serials<br />ALT+C - Cataloging <br />ALT+P - Patron Services<br />ALT+R - Circulation<br />ALT+M - Administration<br />ALT+U - Utilities<br />ALT+H - Help<br /></b>If you use a shortcut key to access a menu, the keys for the functions are underlined. For example, if you select <b>ALT+A</b>&#160;for the Acquisitions menu the F is underlined in <span style="font-weight: bold;text-decoration: underline;">F</span><span style="font-weight: bold;">unds</span>. Press <b>F </b>to open the Find Tool and search for Fund records. For more shortcut keys, see <a href="../Basic_Shortcut_Keys.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Basic Shortcut Keys</span></a><b>.</b></p>
<p>To access a subsystem menu, you can press shortcut keys or use the mouse and click a menu title. </p>
<p>You can also click one of the color-coded round icons (for example, dark blue for Cataloging), and the record icons appear. Click the icon borders (handles) to expand, contract, and reorder the toolbar. </p>
<p><a name="kanchor2094"></a><a name="IX_changing_the_toolbar"></a>Display or hide the subsystem buttons by clicking the round icon or by dragging the handle. Hover the cursor over an icon to see the name of the record. Create a two-level toolbar by dragging down the round icon or handle. When you close Polaris and log back on, the Shortcut Bar returns to its default display.</p>

<p>Use topic-level Help when you want to find information on any Polaris function. </p>
<p>Open topic-level Help, by selecting one of the following options:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">From the Polaris Shortcut Bar, press <b>ALT+H</b>&#160;or and press <b>P</b>, or select <b>Help, Polaris Topics</b>.</li>
<li value="2">From the Find Tool, select <b>Help, Find Tool Topics</b>.</li>
<li value="3">From a workform, select <b>Help, Subsystem Help Topics</b>.</li>
</ul>
<p class="indent2">The Polaris Staff Help window appears. The location from which you access Help determines the content that displays in the window. If you access Help from the Polaris Shortcut Bar, the Help window opens with topics relating to the Shortcut Bar and Polaris menus. If you access Help from the Find Tool, the Help window opens with topics relating to using the Find Tool. If you access Help from a workform, the Help window opens with topics relating to the workforms subsystem. You can navigate to other topics no matter how you first accessed the Help window.</p>
<p class="indent2">The right pane of the Polaris Staff Help window displays topic information. The left pane is used for searching and navigation.</p>
<p>To navigate through the staff Help table of contents, do the following:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The table of contents displays help topics in a tree view as they would be organized in a book. The table of contents shows the book hierarchy and how topics are related to each other, and lets you progress from topic to topic. If you have a topic displayed in the right pane, you can click the Contents tab to see where the topic appears in the hierarchy.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Click the <b>Contents</b> tab in the left pane.</li>
<li value="2">Double-click the main topic to display subtopics.</li>
<li value="3">Double-click the main topic to hide subtopics.</li>
</ul>
<p>To use the index, do the following:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The index displays help topics in alphabetical order. Use the index for most searches unless the term is uncommon. You may also find useful cross-references and alternate terms.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Click the <b>Index</b> tab in the left pane.</li>
<li value="2">Type the term you are searching for (or the first few letters) in the <b>Type in the keyword to find</b> box.</li>
<li value="3">The index displays the alphabetical part of the list that includes the term you typed.</li>
<li value="4">Double-click the topic in the list, or select the topic and click <b>Display</b>.</li>
<li value="5">The topic appears in the right pane.</li>
</ul>
<p>To search for a keyword term, do the following:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor3892"></a><a name="IX_tips"></a><a name="kanchor3893"></a><a name="IX_search_vs_index_tabs"></a><b>Note:<br /></b>The Search feature is most useful for uncommon terms. For example, you could use the Search tab when looking for information on Z39.50. But if you are looking for information on bibliographic records, you will get more useful results using the Index tab.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Click the <b>Search</b> tab in the left pane.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>You can display the Search page directly from a workform or the Polaris Shortcut Bar by selecting <b>Help, Search For Help On</b>.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Type the term you are searching for (or the first few letters) in the box.</li>
<li value="2">Double-click the entry, or select the entry and click <b>Display</b>.</li>
</ul>
<p class="indent2">The topic appears in the right pane. Each instance of the term is highlighted.</p>
<p>To navigate through a topic displayed in the right pane, use these controls:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Press the down arrow or up arrow on the right side of the window to scroll through the topic.</li>
<li value="2">Click links in the topic information to display related information.</li>
<li value="3">Click the book icons in the table of contents on the left panel to see other topics.</li>
<li value="4">See where the displayed topic appears in the table of contents. With the topic displayed in the right pane, click the <b>Contents</b>&#160;tab to see the topic in the tree view. You can select another heading to see other procedures or an overview.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Tip:<br /></b>When you search using the <b>Search</b>&#160;or <b>Index</b>&#160;tab, and you need to see the topic in context or you need to go back to an overview, you can click the <b>Contents</b>&#160;tab.</p>
<p>To save a topic link to frequently access the topic, do the following:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Display the topic.</li>
<li value="2">Click the <b>Favorites</b> tab in the left pane.</li>
<li value="3">If you want to change the name of the topic link, type the new name over the existing name in the <b>Current topic</b> box.</li>
<li value="4">Click <b>Add</b>.</li>
</ul>
<p class="indent2">The new topic link appears in the Topics list.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Notes:<br /></b>- To display a Favorite topic, select the topic link in the Topics list, and click <b>Display</b>. <br />- To delete a topic link from Favorites, select the topic link in the Topics list, and click <b>Remove</b>.</p>
<p>To print from the Help file, do the following:</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_89685_Add_cataloging"></a>Add Records to a Record Set</h1>
<p>You can add bibliographic records, item records, or patron records to a record set by searching for the records or by scanning item or patron barcodes. For patron record sets only, you can select an Excel file to populate the record set. No data is imported from the Excel file; if the patron ID in the file matches an existing patron record in the Polaris database, the record is added to the record set.</p>
<p><a name="kanchor3617"></a><a name="IX_adding_records_to"></a><a name="kanchor3618"></a>To add records to a new or existing record set:</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>You can use the Find Tool to search for an existing record set by the record set name, owner, or creation date. See <a href="../PIfindrec/Doing_a_Basic_Search.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Doing a Basic Search</span></a>.</p>
<ol>
<li value="1">Open the Record Set workform for a new or existing record set.</li>
<li value="2">Use one of the following methods to add the records:</li>

<li value="2" data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden"><b>Scan item or patron barcodes</b> - Select <b>Tools </b>&gt;<b> Add, Scan</b>, press <b>CTRL+K</b>, or click <img alt="AddBrcdBtn.gif" style="width: 33;height: 18;" src="AddBrcdBtn_33x18.gif" class="imginline" />. The Scan Barcode dialog box appears, in which you scan the barcode (or type the barcode and press <b>ENTER</b>). Keep scanning item or patron barcodes. Click<b> Close</b> when you have added all the records.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>Scanning a patrons barcode on the Patron Record Set workform adds the patron record to the record set, and scanning an items barcode on the Item Record Set workform adds the item record to the record set.

<p><a name="kanchor336"></a><a name="IX_making_available_from"></a><a name="kanchor337"></a><a name="IX_overview_4"></a>Record sets gather multiple records of one type together so that you can take action on them all at once. As examples, you can use record sets to:</p>
<ul>
<li value="1">Make changes to all the records in a patron, item, or bibliographic record set using the Bulk Change process. </li>
<li value="2">Add multiple titles to a purchase order or selection list. </li>
<li value="3">Publish the URL to a bibliographic record set in the Polaris PowerPACs portal page, dashboard, or Web site page as a quick way for patrons to access title lists such as summer reading lists. </li>
<li value="4">Sort the records in the record set and print the view for a working list.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can create record sets from the Find Tool results list, the Polaris Shortcut Bar, another record set, SimplyReports. Record sets are also created as part of automatic processes, such as identifying and gathering all unlinked bibliographic records in a record set.</p>

<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="3">Select <b>Tools, Delete</b>, or click the Delete button.</li>
<li value="4">If you are deleting a single record, a confirmation dialog box appears.

See: <a href="../PIcreatrec/Delete_multiple_records.htm">Delete multiple records.</a></li>
<li value="5">Click <b>Yes</b> to confirm that you want to delete the record or records.</li>
</ol>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>If a record cannot be deleted, the delete error dialog box appears. Select from the available options on the dialog box. </p>
<p class="indent2">The deleted records no longer appear in the Records list. A message in the status bar tells you how many records were deleted. </p>
<ol data-mc-continue="true">
<li value="6">Select <b>File | Save</b> to save the record set. The following message appears in the status bar: <b>The record set was saved successfully</b>, and the <b>Number of records</b>&#160;box displays the correct number of records in the record set<b>.</b></li>

The top of the report displays the fiscal years total amount budgeted, encumbered, expended, available and the total percentage used. If your library orders centrally, you can select the fiscal year for the central processing organization, and the report will display all the top-level funds linked to the selected fiscal year with the subfunds under them. If your library orders decentrally, you can select the fiscal year for a branch, and all the top-level funds linked to the fiscal year will be listed with their subfunds under them. For each top-level fund listed, the following totals are displayed: <b>Total Allocated, Total Encumbered, Total Spent, Total Unspent, Unspent = Total Allocated minus Spent. </b>The totals include all the amounts for the subfunds added together.</li>

In contrast with approval plans, blanket plans do not generally allow return privileges with simple deductions from the invoice. With blanket plans, quality is less important than comprehensiveness of coverage. Blanket plans can be as narrow as a specific publishers series or as broad as a request to send all material of a particular type or on a particular subject.</span></a>. </li>

<h1><a name="Circulat"></a>Circulation Reports</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor3952"></a>Circulation reports help you track circulation, overdue items, overdue patrons, and delinquent patrons. To access these reports, select <b>Utilities &gt; Reports and Notices</b>&#160;from the Polaris Shortcut bar, and select <b>Circulation</b>&#160;in the Polaris Reports window.</p>
<ul>
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Circulation by Collection Material Type Analysis</span>&#160;- This report shows a count of circulations by material type within each system-defined collection for a time period you designate. It gathers statistics from the transaction file and will include circulated items that have since been deleted. The report counts checkouts and renewals as separate transactions; if an item is checked out multiple times, each checkout is counted. The report also displays the percentage of total items that each collection/material type combination represents. You can filter the report by one or more branches. The branches included are the circulated items assigned branches.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The Cataloging Item report Collection Material Type Analysis provides the collection/material type information without circulation statistics.<br /><br />The Cataloging Item report Collection Disposition by Material Type shows the number and percentage of items currently on the shelf (or otherwise considered available), items out (unavailable but accounted for), or not accounted for (lost, missing).<br /><br />For more information about these and other Cataloging reports, see <a href="Cat_Reports.htm#Catalogi">Cataloging Reports</a>.<br /></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Circulation by Items Assigned Branch</span>&#160;- For a specified date range, reports the number of items from the reporting (item) branch that have been checked out and renewed at other branches, as well as the reporting branch. You can see how many items have been shipped from the reporting branch to each loaning branch, and the total circulation for the reporting branchs items. The report is sorted by organization, loaning branch, and item material type. You can filter this report by organization (items assigned branch).</li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Circulation by Items Loaning Branch</span>&#160;- For a specified date range, reports the number of items from all the branches that have been checked out and renewed at the reporting (loaning) branch. The report also includes total items and total transactions. The report is sorted by organization, items assigned branch, and item material type. You can filter this report by organization (loaning branch).</li>
<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Circulation by Postal Code </span>- For a specified date range and organization, reports checkout transactions by postal code. The results are grouped by branch then country type (USA, Canada, Non-USA/Non-Canada, and No Postal Code). Details include the Postal Code, City, State, Number of Checkouts, Unique Patrons, and Unique Items followed by Totals and Grand Totals.</li>
<li value="4"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Circulation by Workstation</span>&#160;- For a specified date range, reports the number of items that have been checked out and renewed at specified workstations. The report is sorted by organization, workstation, and item statistical class (item stat code), and includes totals by item stat code, totals for each workstation, and totals for each organization. You can filter this report by organization (workstations parent branch). The branch responsible for the checkout is the branch associated with a renewal. The report separates renewals done from PAC and lists them under System.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The report is based on workstation ID, so if a workstation is reassigned to a new organization the report will include transactions for both the old and new locations. This may also happen if a “floating” staff member at the workstation logs on to one branch, does transactions, then logs on to a different branch from the same workstation.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Delinquent Patrons</span>&#160;- Identifies patrons (name, phone, barcode) who have system blocks, free-text blocks, or library-defined blocks on their records. You can filter this report by organization (patrons registered branch).</li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Expired Reserve Items</span>&#160;- Identifies items with a status of On Reserve, but for which the reserve period has expired. You may find this report especially useful at the end of an academic term. After you run the report, you can take the reported items off reserve, pull them from the shelves, and return them to the regular collection or otherwise dispose of them. You can filter this report by organization, and sort it by call number, title, and course name.</li>
<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Fiscal Year Turnover Rate</span>&#160;- This report offers similar information to the Turnover Rate report, but you can specify a fiscal year and that years starting month. The report then compares that years turnover rate information with the current years statistics.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Important:<br /></b>Because this report gathers up to two years of data, it may take several minutes to complete.</p>
<ul>
<li value="1"><a name="kanchor3953"></a><span class="FM_BulletHead">Floating Items by Home Branch </span>- &#160;A statistical report that counts how many items from the home branch have floated to other branches.

(The same item may float to a branch more than one time; the report counts an item only once.) If the same item floats to more than one branch, it is counted once for each branch.</li><li value="6"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Total number of items that have floated</span>&#160;- Unique items only. The same item may float to different branches or float and return. It is counted only once.</li></ul></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li value="1"><a name="kanchor3954"></a><span class="FM_BulletHead">Floating Items Setup - </span>A summary report for the home branch showing the branchs floating settings. You can select one or more branches. If a branch has not enabled floating collections but has defined values, the report prints the values. If a branch has not enabled floating collections and has not defined any values (collections, material types and so forth) the report is blank. This report includes the following information for each selected home branch:</li>
</ul>

<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Reserve Statistics by Course</span>&#160;- Lists reserve items currently on reserve (status of On Reserve or Permanent Reserve) for a course with a status of Active, and the number of times each item has been checked out. For example, this report is useful if an instructor asks whether items on reserve for a particular course are circulating. You run the report for a selected course/section number or multiple course/section numbers at a particular branch. Items that circulate while on reserve also increment the year-to-date circulation counter in the primary item record. Reserve circulations are included in the standard circulation statistical reports. </li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The turnover rate is the number of items circulated divided by the total number of items owned. Two reports calculate turnover rate by collection or item statistical code, for a selected branch or multiple branches. These reports can help you determine, for example, how heavily a collection is used in relation to the size of the collection:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Top Circulating Titles by Collection </span>- Lists the top circulated titles, organized by selected branch and collection, for a specified date range. You select one, several, or all branches in the system and specify a date range, collection, and number of titles to show. The branches are items assigned branches. The report will count check-out and renewal transactions for the date range from the beginning of the first day through and including the end of the final day. The report is divided in to sections by items assigned branch, and sorted within each branch section by collection name and then by titles according to circulation count (high to low). The columns include the following information:</li>
<ul>
<li value="1"><b>Collection</b>
</li>
<li value="2"><b>Titles within collection</b>
</li>
<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Count of circulations for each title</span> - Each checkout and each renewal is counted for each title regardless of check-out branch or patrons branch. The titles with the highest circulation numbers appear in the report. If there are fewer than the specified number of circulated titles in a collection, the reports lists all the titles that have circulation counts. If some titles have the same count, the report lists each, up to the specified number of titles. &#160;If a collection has no circulating titles, it is not listed in the report.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Turnover Rate</span>&#160;- This report counts all item check-out and renewals where the items assigned branch matches a selected branch or branches and the transaction date is within the selected date range. You specify whether to report by collection (the default) or by item statistical code. For each selected branch, the report lists each collection or item statistical code that has had circulation, the total items in the collection or statistical code, the number of circulations for each collection or statistical code, and the corresponding turnover rate (circulated items/total items) expressed as a decimal figure, and the totals of these figures for each branch. If the report includes more than one branch, combined totals for the selected branches are also included.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><span class="FM_NoteHeader" style="font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;color: #000000;text-decoration: none;letter-spacing: 0.00em;"><span class="Input">Notes:</span><br /></span>The item count is based on the number of items in the assigned branchs holdings on the date the report is run.<br /><br />Check-out and renewal transactions are counted without regard to the transacting patron. That is, if the same patron checks out the same item 12 times, 12 transactions are counted.<br /><br />The patrons registered branch is not considered in any way.<br /><br />If an item is put in transit to fill a hold at another branch and is checked out from that branch, the transaction is counted.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Uncirculated Items</span>&#160;- Identifies items with little or no circulation since their creation date, to help you remove them from the collection. You specify the item record creation date and circulation thresholds. The report lists all items created before the specified date with a record status of Final that have the specified number or fewer circulations. The default number is 0; that is, no circulations. The report includes the total number of circulations and the last circulation date for reference, and is sorted by organization and call number. You can filter this report by organization.</li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead">Statistical Summary</span>&#160;- To access this report, select <b>Utilities, Reports and Notices</b>&#160;from the Polaris Shortcut bar, and select <b>System</b>&#160;in the Polaris Reports dialog box.

If your organization has Polaris SimplyReports, and you have the required permissions, you can customize a report created in SimplyReports and make it available from the Polaris Shortcut Bar. For more information, see SimplyReports online Help. When you customize a report, it is saved in the Custom folder for your organization.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />When you place a custom report in a new folder, click <b>Refresh Reports</b> on the Polaris Reports toolbar to see the new folder.</p>

<h1><a name="Holds"></a><a name="kanchor3188"></a>Holds Processing Reports</h1>
<p>Reports related to holds are part of the regular holds processing workflow. They identify a branchs hold requests to fill, requests awaiting pickup, unclaimed requests, titles that have a high volume of holds, expired requests, and other useful information. To access these reports, select <b>Utilities, Reports and Notices</b>&#160;from the Polaris Shortcut bar, and select <b>Circulation, Holds</b> in the Polaris Reports dialog box.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Expired Requests</span>&#160;- Lists expired requests with item and patron information. You can filter this report by organization.</li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Held Checklist</span>&#160;- Lists the held items that are awaiting pickup by patrons; includes item and patron information, sorted by organization and call number. You may find it useful to run this report daily. You can filter this report by organization.</li>
<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Holds Alert Reports</span>&#160;- These reports list titles where the number of Active and Pending requests is equal to or greater than a selected number of requests, and count the number of items linked to those titles that might fill the requests. The linked items count includes items with a Final record status, and any circulation status except Claim Never Had, Claim Returned, Lost, Missing, Withdrawn, or Unavailable. You can select a pickup branch or branches to filter the <b>Holds alert report by branch</b>. You can select a library or libraries to filter the <b>Holds alert report by library</b>; in this case, the report includes requests where the pickup branch belongs to one of the selected libraries. Report output columns include the bib record ID, title, author, type of material (format), ISBN, local holds count, local items count, system holds count, and system items count.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>These reports are based on current holds data (all current Active and Pending requests), not transaction data. They do not report the number of requests that have been placed in the past, only the requests that are in the system when the reports are run.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">
<p class="FM_Task"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Holds Purchase Alert</span>&#160;- Lists bibliographic records with hold requests on them, the number of requests, and the number of items that can fill the request. This report provides the library with an indication of which titles are most frequently requested and have too few items to meet the demand, and is useful for making purchasing decisions. Using the report parameters, you can do the following:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Set the levels for the number of holds on a bibliographic record and the number of items attached to a bibliographic record in the report. The report returns results based on the ratio of number of holds to number of items. The report also includes bibliographic records for which there are no linked items.</li>
<li value="2">Include or exclude items that are not holdable (Lost, Missing, Withdrawn, Unavailable and non-holdable) by selecting <b>Yes</b>&#160;or <b>No</b>&#160;next to <b>Include non-holdable items</b>. The default is <b>No</b> - no non-holdable items will be included. </li>
<li value="3">Filter the report by TOM by selecting one or multiple TOM filters. When TOM filters have been applied, only bibliographic records with the selected primary TOMs are included. For example, if you want to see Blu ray discs for which there are at least 10 holds and only 1 item, enter <b>10</b>&#160;in the <b>Number of Holds</b>&#160;box and <b>1</b>&#160;in the <b>Number of Items</b>&#160;box, and select <b>Blu ray Disc</b>&#160;in the <b>Type of Material</b>&#160;box.</li>
<li value="4">Group the report by TOM, or leave it ungrouped. </li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The report includes the UPC code (if any) for bibliographic records with no ISBN to help you track non-print records.</p>
<ul>
<li value="1"><b><a name="kanchor3189"></a>Hold Requests To Fill&#160;</b>- The <a href="javascript:void(0)" class="MCTextPopup MCTextPopupHotSpot MCTextPopup_Open MCTextPopupHotSpot_ MCTextPopupHotSpot_Popup #text #textPopup">RTF<span class="MCTextPopupBody popupBody"><span class="MCTextPopupArrow"></span>Requests-To-Fill or RTF processing

This report identifies pending hold requests currently in the request routing sequence. You can sort the report by call number, collection, format, and title, and filter it by organization. You use this report to view items at your library with a status of In that could fill the requests. For each request, check in and send the item to the pick-up branch, or deny the request. </li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>You can also print the Hold Requests To Fill report and the Hold Requests to Transfer reports from the Request Manager workform (<b>File, Print, Holds to Fill or Holds to Transfer</b>). However, you cannot sort information. </p>
<ul>
<li value="1"><b><span class="FM_BulletHead"><a name="kanchor3190"></a>Hold Requests To Transfer</span></b>- Lists held items that need to be transferred to another branch location because the pickup branch was changed. In the Report Wizard dialog box, select a branch or branches on the Parameters tab, and select the <b>Sorting Options</b> tab. Select an option (<b>CallNumber, Collection, Format, PatronName, Title</b>) in the list in the left column, and click the right arrow to select the default sort order for the report. </li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:</b>
<br />If your holds shelf is arranged alphabetically by the patron's last name, you can sort the report by the patron's name and quickly locate the item to transfer.</p>
<ul>
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead"><b>Holds Fiscal Year Analysis</b></span>- Shows the system-wide number of patron-placed hold requests per month, staff-placed hold requests per month, total hold requests for the year to date, and total hold requests filled, beginning with todays date and going back to the month you specify. The report also includes the percentage of increase or decrease for each category compared to the same month in the previous year, and shows the grand totals for successive past years as available data permits. The report gathers the data from the holds transaction files. For reporting purposes, hold requests “placed” includes all requests that acquired a status of Inactive, Active, or Pending. Reactivated requests are not counted.</li>
<li value="2"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Local Hold Request and Item Counts by Branch</span>&#160;- Lists Active and Pending requests for each branch where the branch is the pick-up library. The <b>Number of Local Holds</b>&#160;column shows the requests. The <b>Number of Local Copies</b>&#160;column shows the number of items owned by the branch, including items with a status of In, Out, Held, Transferred, In Transit, On Order, In Repair, and In Process. Items designated as Not Holdable are also included in the count. This column lists <b>0</b>&#160;for a title if the pickup branch does not own any eligible items, or if the title does not have any linked items. You can filter this report by organization.</li>
<li value="3"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Pending Holds Count</span>&#160;- Counts pending requests per day for a selected pick-up branch or branches, and can help you gauge the amount of staff time spent on finding and pulling items that fill requests. You specify a date range and select an organization or organizations (the pick-up branches for the hold requests). The report lists all the holds requests that changed to a status of Pending during the selected date range for the selected pick-up libraries. If the same request went Pending more than once during the specified time period, it is counted only once. The report is organized by branch and lists one line per day during the time period with the total number of pending requests for that day. If the count for a day is 0, that day is not listed. For example, a selected date range of 30 days could include up to 30 lines for a branch, with a count of requests for each day. The reports also includes the total number of requests for each selected branch and the grand total for all selected branches.</li>
<li value="4"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Request Time to Fill</span>&#160;- Shows how many days it took to fill hold requests during a specified time period, from the date the request was placed to the date the item was placed on the hold shelf. The report is organized in 10-day increment columns. That is, you see how many requests were filled in 10 days or less, how many were filled in 11-20 days, and so forth. A percentage of the total requests filled is also provided for each 10-day increment, as well as an overall average days-to-fill figure. (Note that the percentages for each 10-day column may not total exactly 100% due to rounding.) The report is grouped by pick-up branch, and you can filter the report by pick-up branch.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The report does not include requests that took more than two years to fill.</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1"><span class="FM_BulletHead" style="font-weight: bold;">Unclaimed Checklist</span>&#160;- Lists unclaimed requests with item and patron information. You can filter this report by organization.</li>
</ul>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>To access the Statistical Summary report, select <b>Utilities, Reports and Notices</b><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">&#160;</span>from the Polaris Shortcut bar, and select <b>System</b><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">. </span>See <a href="System_Reports.htm#System">System Reports</a><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">.</span></p>

<h1><a name="XREF_32945_Getting_Started"></a>Using Polaris Standard Reports</h1>
<p>Polaris provides many standard and customizable reports to help you track all aspects of library activities. The default output format for a report is a PDF file, or you can choose HTML 4.0, MHTML, Excel, or Comma Separated Values (CSV). (Depending on the data in the report, the additional formats such as Excel and HTML may not produce the results you expect.) You can print or email a report from Adobe Reader.</p>
<p>To access the Polaris standard reports, select <b>Utilities &gt; Reports and Notices</b>&#160;from the Polaris Shortcut Bar and select a subsystem folder. A report may be located in a subsystems main folder or subfolder. Additionally, <b>Notices</b>&#160;may be located within a subsystems main folder, containing applicable subfolders. For example, all acquisitions reports are located in the <b>Acquisitions</b>&#160;folder, but cataloging reports are located in one of the following subfolders within the <b>Cataloging</b>&#160;folder: <b>Authority, Bibliographic, Community, </b>or <b>Item</b>.</p>
<p>In Polaris Administration, the settings in the Staff Client <b>Report Server </b>profile specify your report server, the organizations that you can select, and the number of entries in the report parameter lists. If your organizations setting is <b>Unrestricted</b>, you can run reports for all organizations in your library system. If your organizations setting is <b>Restrict Organization to Library Only</b>, you can run reports for your branch (the branch where you are logged in) and all other branches associated with your parent library. If your organizations setting is <b>Restrict organization to Branch Only</b>, you can run reports only for your branch (the branch where you are logged in). </p>
<p class="NoteShade"><a name="kanchor3699"></a><a name="IX_access_reports"></a><a name="kanchor3700"></a><a name="IX_permission_to_access"></a><b>Tip:<br /></b>To generate, print, or customize reports, you must have the following permission in Polaris Administration: <b>Access Reports and Notices</b>.</p>
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note: </b>
<br />INN-Reach is Innovative's user-initiated direct consortial borrowing system. If your library participates in an INN-Reach consortium, you can run INN-Reach reports. See <a href="../../INN-Reach Integration/INN-Reach Reports/INN-Reach Reports.htm" class="MCXref xref"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">INN-Reach Reports</span></a><span>.</span></p>

<h1>Polaris Application Overview</h1>
<p><a name="kanchor4343"></a><a name="IX_architecture"></a>Polaris&#160;is a Microsoft Windows-based client-server application. Staff members use staff client software, while the server stores, retrieves, and protects data. </p>
<p>Library staff and administrators use the staff client to do administrative, technical services, and patron services tasks.</p>
<p>Your patrons may use one or a combination of the following Web-based applications:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li value="1">Polaris<span class="FM_SuperScript">®</span> PowerPAC<span class="FM_SuperScript"></span>&#160;provides Web-based access to library searches and services from remote computers, and from computers in the library. </li>
<li value="2">Polaris<span class="FM_SuperScript">®</span> PowerPAC<span class="FM_SuperScript"></span>Childrens Edition is the Web-based application designed specifically for childrens use.</li>
<li value="3">Polaris<span class="FM_SuperScript">®</span> Mobile PAC<span class="FM_SuperScript"></span>&#160;is the Web-based public access catalog that has been optimized for mobile devices. It provides simplified access to many of the features that are available in Polaris PowerPAC. </li>
</ul>
<p>Your Polaris system may also include Polaris ExpressCheck client workstations for self-check and patron account access, Polaris Inventory Manager software and hardware, and other related products.</p>
