Import čtenářů

  • Get there: More > Tools > Patrons and circulation > Import patrons

Nástroj prop import čtenářů může být použit kdykoliv pro hromadné přidání čtenářů. To je běžně používané na univerzitách a ve školách, kdy registruje nová dávka studentů.

Creating a patron import file

You can download a blank CSV file with a header from the start page of the patron import tool that you can use as a template for your patron import. The header contains all fields that can be used with the patron import tool. You can delete fields and columns you don’t need with the exception of a few mandatory ones. When overlaying, if your new .csv includes blank columns, any existing values in patron records will be overwritten with blanks. It is best to remove any blank columns in a .csv to ensure no existing data is removed.

Důležité

cardnumber, surname, and all fields you have defined in the BorrowerMandatoryField preference are required and must match valid entries in your database.

Důležité

Hodnota „Heslo“ by měla být uloženo ve formátu prostého textu, a bude převeden na MD5 hash (což je šifrovaná verze hesla).

Pokud máte hesla už nějakým způsobem zakódovaná, zeptejte se na možnost importu správce systému

Důležité

Date formats should match your dateformat system preference, and must be zero-padded, e.g. ‚01/02/2008‘. Alternatively you can supply dates in ISO format (e.g. ‚2008-12-01‘).

Důležité

If your data contains special characters or diacritics, make sure your file is encoded in UTF-8. Otherwise, the special characters will not be imported correctly.

Poznámka

If loading patron attributes, the ‚patron_attributes‘ field should contain a comma-separated list of attribute types and values.

  • Kód typu atributu kód a dvojtečka by měly předcházet každou hodnotu.

    • Například: „INSTID:12345,BASEBALL:Cubs“

    • Pole musí být uzavřeno uvozovkami, pokud je nastaveno více hodnot.

    • Since values can contain spaces, additional doubled-quotes may be required:

      • „INSTID:12345,BASEBALL:Cubs,““BASEBALL:White Sox““

Poznámka

It’s possible to set restrictions using the patron import tool. If the expiration date and comment match an existing restriction, the one in the import file will be skipped. So a patron import can be repeated multiple times without creating duplicate restrictions. But if one of the criteria is different, a new restriction will be added.

Importing patrons

Once you have created your file, you can use the patron import tool to bring the data into Koha.

  • Choose your CSV file

    image255

  • Choose to match on ‚cardnumber‘ or ‚username‘ to prevent adding of duplicate card numbers to the system. Additional matchpoints can be set up using patron attributes marked as unique.

    image256

  • Dále si můžete vybrat výchozí hodnoty, které platí pro všechny importované čtenáře

    • For example, if you’re importing patrons specific to one branch you can use the field on the import form to apply the branch code to all those you are importing.

  • Finally, you need to decide on what data you want to replace if there are duplicates.

    • Shodný záznam se určí na základě hodnoty „Pole pro zjišťování shody záznamů“

    image257

    • When using patron attributes in your installation, you can choose how they are handled on import. You can either decide to always overlay all patron attributes or you choose to only replace patron attributes included in your import file. This will leave other attributes untouched.

Oznámení & potvrzení

  • Get there: More > Tools > Patrons and circulation > Notices & slips

All notices and circulation receipts (or slips) generated by Koha can be customized using the Notices & slips tool. The system comes with several predefined templates that will appear when you first visit this tool.

List of notices

Poznámka

  • You can customize the columns of this table in the ‚Table settings‘ section of the Administration module (table id: lettert).

Všechna oznámení mohou být upravována, ale pouze některá mouhou být smazána. Je to proto, aby se předešlo chybám při pokusu o odeslání neexistujícího oznámení. Všechna oznámení a potvrzení mohou být upravována pro každou knihovnu zvlášť, ale ve výchozím nastavení se pro všechny knihovny používají společná oznámení.

If you have a style you’d like applied to all slips you can point the SlipCSS preference to a stylesheet. The same is true for notices, using the NoticeCSS preference to define a stylesheet.

You will also want to review the Customising notices and slips wiki page for more information on formatting these notices.

      Poznámka

      Review the Customising notices and slips wiki page for more information.

      Důležité

      Overdue notices can use <<items.content>> tags by themselves, or use <item></item> to span all of the tags. Learn more about the Overdue notice markup.

      • On overdue notices make sure to use <<items.content>> tags to print out the data related to all items that are overdue.

      • The other option, only for overdue notices, is to use the <item></item> tags to span the line so that it will print out multiple lines. One example for the <item></item> tag option is:

        <item>"<<biblio.title>>" by <<biblio.author>>,
        <<items.itemcallnumber>>, Barcode: <<items.barcode>> ,
        Checkout date: <<issues.issuedate>>, Due date:
        <<issues.date\_due>> Fine: <<items.fine>> </item>
        

      Důležité

      Only the overdue notices take advantage of the <item></item> tags, all other notices referencing items need to use <<items.content>>.

      Tip

      To add today’s date you can use the <<today>> tag.

      Tip

      If you don’t want to print the patron’s full name on your slips or notice you can enter data in the Other name or Initials field for each patron and use that value instead.

  • The system preference TranslateNotices will add tabs for each installed language to the notices editor. The notice defined in the ‚Default‘ tab will be used if there is no preferred language set for a patron (‚Preferred language for notices‘ field in the patron file).

    Form to create a new notice, the email, print and sms sections are inside a tab called "Default", other tabs available are Français (fr-CA) and English (en)

Preview notice templates

For some notices it is possible to preview the notice template showing how it would look to a specified patron for a particular item or record.

If a notice template is previewable the notice template header will contain a field to enter preview data

image1342

Fill in the necessary information for the template then click the Preview button below the message body. The preview dialog will indicate if there are any problems generating the notice template preview.

Overdue notice markup

When creating your overdue notices there are two tags in addition to the various database fields that you can use in your notices. You will also want to review the Customising notices and slips wiki page for information on formatting item information in these notices.

Důležité

Tyto nové tagy fungují pouze pro upomínky, nikoliv pro další oznámení související s výpůjčkami (v tomto stadiu vývoje Koha).

These tags are <item> and </item> which should enclose all fields from the biblio, biblioitems, and items tables.

Příklad použití těchto štítků v šabloně oznámení:

The following item(s) is/are currently overdue:

<item>"<<biblio.title>>" by <<biblio.author>>, <<items.itemcallnumber>>, Barcode: <<items.barcode>> Fine: <<items.fine>></item>

Což, za předpokladu, že dvě položky byly po lhůtě splatnosti, by mělo za následek oznámení jako:

The following item(s) is/are currently overdue:

"A Short History of Western Civilization" by Harrison, John B, 909.09821 H2451, Barcode: 08030003 Fine: 3.50
"History of Western Civilization" by Hayes, Carlton Joseph Huntley, 909.09821 H3261 v.1, Barcode: 08030004 Fine: 3.50

      A Postscript Point is 1/72“, an Adobe Agate is 1/64“, an Inch is 25.4 SI Millimeters

  • Next, note if this layout is for the front or the back of the patron card

    • Poznámka

      You will need a layout for both the front and back of your card if you have 2-sided library cards, this option doesn’t allow you to print two sided cards, just lets you track which side of the card you’re designing.

  • You have the option of adding up to 3 lines of text to your card. Your text can be static text of your choosing and/or fields from the patron record. If you want to print fields from the patron record you want to put the field names in brackets like so - <firstname>

  • Pro každý řádek textu můžete zvolit písmo, velikost písma a umístění textu na průkazu s použitím souřadnic X a Y

  • In order to show the barcode and the patron card number you will need to check the ‚Print card number as barcode‘ option. This will turn the patron card number into a barcode. If you want the number to print in human readable format you will need to check the ‚Print card number as text under barcode‘ option.

  • Nakonec můžete vybrat až obrázky k tisku na kartě.

    • One can be the patron image which you can resize to meet your needs.

    • The other image can be something like a library logo or symbol that you uploaded using the ‚manage images‘ module of the patron card creator Tool.

    Důležité

    It is the designers responsibility to define textlines, barcode and images such that overlap is avoided.

After saving, your layouts will appear on the ‚Manage layouts‘ page.

Šablony

  • Get there: More > Tools > Patron card creator > Manage > Card templates

A template describes the arrangement of labels on the label sheet/card stock you are using. This might be Avery 5160 for address labels, Gaylord 47-284 for spine labels or Avery 28371 for your patron cards, just to give a couple of examples. All of the information you will need for setting up a template may be on the packaging, and if not it can usually be found on the vendor’s website or can be measured from a sample sheet.

  • Profil je množina „úprav“ aplikovaná na danou šablonu těsně před tiskem, což kompenzuje zvláštnosti charakteristické pro danou tiskárnu (ke které je přiřazen profil).

    • Před vybráním profilu zkuste vytisknout nějaký vzorek karty, abyste si mohli definovat profil, který je vhodný pro kombinaci vaší tiskárny / šablony.

    • After finding and documenting any anomalies in the printed document, then you can create a profile and assign it to the template.

    • Důležité

      Nespecifikujte profil, pokud to není nutné, tedy neklikejte na definování profilu tiskárny. Není možné odebrat profil z šablony, ale můžete přepnout k jinému profilu.

    • Poznámka

      Pokud používáte jiné tiskárny, může být nutné definovat několik šablon, které jsou identické, mají jen jiné specifikované profily.

After saving, your templates will appear on the ‚Manage templates‘ page.

Profily

  • Get there: More > Tools > Patron card creator > Manage > Profiles

A profile is a set of „adjustments“ applied to a given template just prior to printing which compensates for anomalies unique and peculiar to a given printer. This means if you set a template up and then print a sample set of data and find that the items are not all aligned the same on each card, you need to set up a profile for each printer (or even different tray selections on the same printer) to make up for the differences in printing styles, such as the shifting of text to the left, right, top or bottom.

Pokud vaše karty jsou vytištěny přesně tak, jak chcete, nebudete potřebovat profil.

Add a profile

To add a new profile, you want to click on the ‚Profiles‘ button at the top of your page and choose ‚New profile‘

"New" button in the patron card creator is open, the mouse cursor is on the "Printer profile" option

To add a new profile, you want to click on the ‚New profile‘ button at the top of your page. Using the form that appears you can define the values to correct the card misalignment on your label sheet. You may also choose ‚Manage profiles‘ on the left side and select one of the currently available profiles for editing.

image269

  • The Printer name and Paper bin do not have to match your printer exactly, they are for your reference so you can remember what printer you have set the profile for.

    • Poznámka

      Například: pokud chcete použít Číslo modelu tiskárny v názvu tiskárny, můžete, nebo ji můžete nazvat tiskárna na mém stole.

  • Template will be filled in once you have chosen which template to apply the profile to on the template edit form

  • Roletka Jednotky se používá k definování měřítka, které budete používat pro svůj profil.

      A Postscript Point is 1/72“, an Adobe Agate is 1/64“, an Inch is 25.4 SI Millimeters

  • Offset should be used when the entire image is off center either vertically or horizontally. Creep describes a condition where the distance between the labels changes across the page or up and down the page

    • For offset and creep values, negative numbers move the printed information up and to the left on the printed sheet and positive numbers move down and to the right

    • Example: the text is printed 0 .25“ from the left edge of the first label, 0 .28“ from the left edge of the second label and 0 .31“ from the left edge of the third label. This means the horizontal creep should be set to (minus) -0.03 “ to make up for this difference.

After saving, your profiles will appear on the ‚Manage printer profiles‘ page.

  • Get there: More > Tools > Catalog > Rotating collections

Rotating collections is a tool for managing collections of materials that frequently get shifted from library to library. It adds the ability to store not only an item’s home library and current location but also information about where it is supposed to be transferred to next to ensure that all items in the collection are sent to the correct library. When an item in a rotating collection is checked in, library staff is notified that the item is part of a rotating collection and which branch it should be sent to if it is not at the correct one.

Důležité

The AutomaticItemReturn system preference must be set to „Don’t automatically transfer items to their home library when they are returned“ for rotating collections to function properly.

  • To create a new rotating collection, click the „New collection“ button, fill in the title and description, and click „Submit“. Once submitted you’ll see „Collection name added successfully“; click „Return to rotating collections home“ to return to the main Rotating collections management page (or click Rotating collections in the sidebar).

  • To add items to a collection, click „Actions“ and choose „Add or remove items“ next to the collection’s name in the list of collections. Under „Add or remove items“ scan or type in the barcode of the item you wish to add to the collection, and hit enter or click ‚Submit‘ if necessary.

  • To remove an item from a collection, either click ‚Remove‘ next to the item’s barcode in the list of items within the collection or check the „Remove item from collection“ box next to the Barcode text box under „Add or remove items“, and scan or type in the barcode, clicking „Submit“ or hitting Enter if necessary. Note: The „Remove item from collection“ checkbox will remain checked as long as you are on the „Add or remove items“ page, unless you uncheck it, to facilitate quickly removing a number of items at a time by scanning their barcodes.

Transfer a rotating collection

Transferring a collection will:

  • Změní současnou lokaci jednotky ve sbírce na knihovnu do které bude přesunuta

  • Initiate a transfer from its original current location/holding library to the current location/holding library it is to be rotated to. When a library receives a collection they will need to check in the items to complete the transfer.

You can transfer a collection in one of two ways:

  • From the main Rotating collections page, click on „Actions“ and choose „Transfer“ next to the title of the collection you wish to transfer; choose the library you wish to transfer the collection to and click „Transfer collection“.

  • Or, from the „add or remove items“ page for a collection, you can click the „Transfer“ button, choose the library you wish to transfer the collection to and click „Transfer Collection“.

    Důležité

    Aby jste dokončili proces přenosu, knihovna obdržující Výměnnou sbírku by měla zkontrolovat všechny položky ze sbírky, když je dostávají. Toto dokončí přenos, aby se položky už dále neukazovaly jako „v přenosu“.

If an item in a rotating collection is checked in at a library other than the one it is supposed to be transferred to, a notification will appear notifying library staff that the item is part of a rotating collection, also letting them know where the item needs to be sent.

    • Encoding: use this field to define the character encoding used when saving the file.

    • Only available on the staff interface (only available with MARC profile type): check this box to limit this CSV profile to the staff interface only, meaning patrons will not be able to use this profile to export their cart or lists from the OPAC.

    • Profile MARC fields (only available with MARC profile type): enter the fields or subfields to export, separated by pipes.

      • For example:

        200\|210$a\|301
        

      Poznámka

      You can use the dollar sign ($) to separate the field number and subfield code, or simply write the field number and subfield code together.

      For example:

      200\|210$a\|301
      

      Or without the dollar sign:

      200\|210a\|301
      

      Tip

      You can use your own headers (instead of the ones from Koha) by prefixing the field number with a header, followed by the equal sign.

      For example:

      Personal name=100\|title=245$a\|300
      

      Poznámka

      You can customize further the profile with Template Toolkit syntax.

      See Using Template Toolkit in MARC CSV profile below for more information and examples.

    • Profile SQL fields (only available with SQL profile type): enter the database fields to export, including the table name, separated by pipes.

      • For example:

        biblio.title\|biblio.author
        

      Tip

      You can use your own headers (instead of the ones from Koha) by prefixing the field with a header, followed by the equal sign.

      For example:

      Title=biblio.title\|Author=biblio.author
      

      Důležité

      For late issues claims you can use data from following tables:

      • serial

      • subscription

      • biblio

      • biblioitems

      • aqbookseller

      For basket exports you can use data from following tables:

      • biblio

      • biblioitems

      • aqorders

      • aqbudgets

      • aqbasket

      Důležité

      Exporting late orders requires a profile using the Template Toolkit syntax (the same syntax as the notices and slips).

      There is a default profile that comes with Koha that you can use as an example.

      Title[% separator %]Author[% separator %]Publication year[% separator %]ISBN[% separator %]Quantity[% separator %]Number of claims
      [%~ SET biblio = order.biblio ~%]
      "[% biblio.title %]"[% separator ~%]
      "[% biblio.author %]"[% separator ~%]
      "[% bibio.biblioitem.publicationyear %]"[% separator ~%]
      "[% biblio.biblioitem.isbn %]"[% separator ~%]
      "[% order.quantity%]"[% separator ~%]
      "[% order.claims.count%][% IF order.claims.count %]([% FOR c IN order.claims %][% c.claimed_on | $KohaDates %][% UNLESS loop.last %], [% END %][% END %])[% END %]"
      [% END %]
      
  • Click ‚Submit‘ to save the new profile.

Using Template Toolkit in MARC CSV profiles

Template Toolkit syntax can be used to build complex CSV files.

For MARC information, you have to use the ‚fields‘ variables to access the field list of the current record.

Start with the column heading, equal sign, and the TT variable. Always separate CSV columns with a pipe (|).

For example, this will return a two-column CSV file, with the first column titled „Title“ and the second column titled „Author“. The first column will contain 245$a and the second column will contain 100$a:

Title=[% fields.245.0.a.0 %]|Author=[% fields.100.0.a.0 %]

Důležité

It’s not possible to display an entire field (e.g. all of 245) you need to list the subfields you want to display.

The ‚0‘ indicate which field or subfield to print if there are more than one. For example, this will fetch the first subfield ‚a‘ of the first ‚245‘ field it finds in the record:

[% fields.245.0.a.0 %]

Single subfield

This is the syntax to get a single subfield from a MARC field.

For example, to get 245$a:

[% fields.245.0.a.0 %]

Multiple subfields in the same column

To concatenate multiple subfields in one column, you’ll need to use [% FOREACH %]. Remember to always define the end of the FOREACH loop with [% END %].

For example, to get both 245$a and 245$b in the same column:

[% FOREACH field IN fields.245 %][% field.a.0 %][% field.b.0 %][% END %]

Multiple subfield values

The previous examples only fetched the first occurrence of the subfield. In some cases, a field might contain more than one subfield of the same code in a field. In that case, you’ll need to use the join() key. The parentheses contain the separator character.

For example, to get 260$a, $b, and $c, in a case where there might be more than one of each subfield, they will be separated by a semicolon followed by a space:

[% FOREACH field IN fields.260 %][% field.a.join('; ') %][% field.b.join('; ') %][% field.c.join('; ') %][% END %]

Indicator values

The indicators can be accessible using the indicator key.

For example, to get the value of the second indicator of the 245 field:

[% fields.245.0.indicator.2 %]

Fixed-length data field values

You can use substr() (substring) to get values from specific positions in fixed-length data fields.

For example, to get the language from the 008 field (positions 35-37):

[% fields.008.0.substr(35,3) %]

Using conditions

Template Toolkit allows to add conditions, with [% IF %], [% ELSIF %], and [% ELSE %]. Remember to always define the end of the condition with [% END %].

For example, to get 650$a if indicator 2 for 650 is set:

Subject=[% FOREACH field IN fields.650 %][% IF field.indicator.2 %][% field.a.0 %][% END %][% END %]

Tip

If you find you have extra spaces in your CSV, you can add tildes (~) inside the TT variables to remove extra whitespaces.

For example, the following code might replace the FOREACH variable with a space, making the title column start with a space:

Title=[% FOREACH field IN fields.245 %][% field.a.join(' ') %][% field.b.join(' ') %][% END %]

To correct this, add tildes at the beginning and end of the FOREACH variable:

Title=[%~ FOREACH field IN fields.245 ~%][% field.a.join(' ') %][% field.b.join(' ') %][% END %]

Pages

  • Get there: More > Tools > Additional tools > Pages

The pages tool is a tool to create custom additional pages in the OPAC and in the staff interface. It is based on the same tool as the news and the HTML customizations, therefore it works in the same way.

Pages tool main page, with table of current pages

To add a new page:

  • Click ‚New entry‘

    New page entry form

    • Display location: choose the interface from which this page should be accessed

      • Librarian and OPAC interfaces: two links will be created, one for the OPAC and one for the staff interface

      • Librarian interface: a link for the staff interface will be created

      • OPAC: a link for the OPAC will be created

    • Library: choose the library for which this page will be available

      • If an OPAC page is limited to a library, only logged in users whose home library matches the page library will be able to access the page.

      • Pages limited to a library will not be accessible to OPAC users who are not logged in, unless your system administrator has configured an ‚OPAC_BRANCH_DEFAULT‘ override in virtual host configuration.

      • If a staff interface page is limited to a library, only staff logged into that library will be able to access the page.

    • Publication date: use the publication date field to control from which date your page is accessible, if it should only be accessed at a future date.

    • Expiration date: use the expiration date field to remove the page after a specific date.

      • If this field is empty the page will be available until you remove it manually

    • You can enter the page title and content for each language installed

Poznámka

You can choose which type of editor to use here (either a text editor or a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor) with the AdditionalContentsEditor system preference.

  • After filling in all of the fields, click ‚Save‘ at the top of the page.

    • Alternatively, click the arrow next to the ‚Save‘ button and choose ‚Save and continue editing‘ if you need to stay on this page to continue editing the news item.

  • In the table, a link will be generated for the OPAC or the staff interface or both. Use this link in HTML customizations, news or system preferences such as IntranetNav or IntranetmainUserBlock so that the patrons or staff members can access the new page.

    Poznámka

    To link to a specific page, use the code in the URL with the code= parameter. For example:

    OPACBASEURL/cgi-bin/koha/opac-page.pl?code=staff_and_opac_42
    
    STAFFCLIENTBASEURL/cgi-bin/koha/tools/page.pl?code=staff_and_opac_42
    

    In multi-language installations, use the language= parameter followed by the language code to link to the page in a specific language. For example:

    OPACBASEURL/cgi-bin/koha/opac-page.pl?code=staff_and_opac_42&language=fr-CA
    
    STAFFCLIENTBASEURL/cgi-bin/koha/tools/page.pl?code=staff_and_opac_42&language=fr-CA
    

To use a custom page

Once the page has been developed and saved, you will see a summary table of all custom pages. This table also displays the generated links to access these custom pages. The links will be available in both the default language, and the installed language currently in use by the logged in staff member.

Pages tool main page, with table of current pages

There is a button to preview the created page. This is helpful to check how the page looks and functions before it is deployed.

Preview of a page

Now the page has been created, there are a number of ways to make the page accessible to your patrons in the Koha OPAC.

Example of a page on the OPAC

One option is to use an HTML customisation to add the link to the page to a section of the OPAC. The page can be added as a navigation link (in OpacNav, OpacNavBottom, or OpacNavRight). Depending on the page, it may be more suitable in the header (opacheader), footer (opaccredits), or main section of the homepage (OpacMainUserBlock).

HTML customizations are only displayed on the OPAC, so News items would be the appropriate tool to add the link to the main landing page of the staff interface.

Example of an OpacNav HTML customization with links to pages

The benefit of putting the page link in an HTML customization or News item is that you can use the WYSIWYG editor, instead of writing code. However, there is always the option to write the content in the HTML text editor too, if you prefer.

Those more proficient in writing code could use jQuery (Javascript) to insert their page link anywhere in the OPAC or staff interface.

Example of using javascript in the OPACUserJS system preference to add a link to a custom page under the search bar in the OPAC

Using jQuery, the pages could be added to either interface as simple text links, or as more advanced button links or image links. Add code to the OPACUserJS system preference to apply jQuery to the OPAC, or to the IntranetUserJS system preference to apply jQuery to the staff interface.

Clever ways to use custom pages:

There are many interesting ways to use custom pages in a Koha library. We’ve heard discussion of pages being used for tables of contents, frequently asked questions pages for the library, and enquiry forms.

Example of a custom page, with a form for patrons to send enquiries to the library

Another way to make custom Koha page content accessible for users, would be to catalogue those pages so they pop in in Koha search results, for example library tutorials that patrons may be looking for.

Example of a custom page "How to use eBooks Tutorial" catalogued as a bibliographic record

Once the page has been created, it can be catalogued in the URI field of a record (856$u). Alternatively, it could be catalogued in the URI field of an item attached to a record (952$u). Both of these fields get converted into hyperlinks by Koha. If catalogued in a record or item, it would then be indexed and become searchable.

Once catalogued, these pages could be used in other ways that are typically reserved for books and other records. The records representing pages can be added to lists, or stored in virtual collections or locations that make them easier to find in the catalogue. They could even be captured and displayed in carousels!

Cash management

Koha includes a number of options for dealing with monetary transactions and actions to allow for fine grained tracking of these processes for audit and analytic processes.

Cash registers

Cash registers can be used to track transactions to a specific location in your library. This can be especially helpful for detailing where cash has been taken for payments and then when this cash is subsequently removed and taken to the bank.

Setup

To enable the use of cash registers, you must turn on the UseCashRegisters system preference.

You can then configure cash registers for your library from the cash registers page in the administration module.

Cashup

The action of ‚cashing up‘ can be recorded against a cash register from both the library details and register details pages.

Clicking the Record cashup button will simply record the date and time that the action has taken place and is intended to allow the regular record of when money is collected from the cash register and taken to the bank.

Both of the above pages utilize the cashup record to limit the display of transactions/summaries to only pertinent information, since the last cashup.

Once a cashup has taken place, a summary of the transactions taken during that cashup period is available for display, and printing, via the Summary link found next to the last cashup date on the register details page.

A cashup summary view modal

Cash summary for library

  • Get there: Home > Tools > Cash summary for library

A summary of transaction amounts associated to a libraries cash registers can be found under the ‚Cash summary for library‘ page tool.

The summary will list registers associated with your logged in branch alongside information about how much money should be found in each register, what is available to take to the bank and a breakdown of income vs outgoings.

Note: You can also access this page from the left hand menu available on the Point of sale page when that module is enabled.

Transaction history for register

  • Get there: Home > Tools > Cash management > Transaction history for register

A list of all transactions to have taken place at a register is available by clicking on the cash register name from the library details page.

If you have the correct permissions, you can re-print receipts, issue refunds and record cashups from this page.

Note: You can also access this page from the left hand menu available on the Point of sale page when that module is enabled.
