How do I find a list of items in temporary locations?
Answer
To find a list of items in temporary locations:
- Perform an advanced repository search for: Physical items: Temporary Location: Equals: [select temporary locations or All (omitting Main-Borrowing and Main-Lending)]
- Click Search
- Click Save Query to create a set or click the Export list icon to export the results to Excel
NOTE: If you put a Due Back Date when placing an item in a temporary location, the item record will be automatically changed to its permanent location on the night of the Due Back Date. The job that restores the item to its permanent location is called "Request - Restore Temporary Shelved Items." Even though the item record says that item is in the permanent location, the physical item may still be in the temporary location. It is good to periodically manually review what items are in the temporary location.
