To enter a
request for a loan you need to be in the user group or a
DiversityCollectionRequester (see
Login administration for
further details). This
is done by the CollectionManagers for their collections. To
enable a user to
place requests
choose Administration - Transaction management -
Loan
requesters ...
from the menu. A window will open as shown
below.
As a CollectionManager you may give requesters access to the collections you manage. Click on the < or > button to add or remove collections from the list for which a user may place a request. If the option Include subcollections is chosen, a user is able to request specimens stored in subcollections of the administrating collection. To give you an overview of the subcollections the hierarchy of the collection is shown in the tree below the list.
If you are a
CollectionManager
and there are requests for your collections, the administration
menu
will contain a
Loan
requests ...
entry. Choose it in order to open a window listing the requests
for specimen in your
collections.
If you have
entered a request
for specimen in a foreign collection, the administration menu
will contain a
My requests...
entry. To
inspect your request choose this entry from the menu to open a
window as shown
below. The window will show your requests and loans from foreign
collections.
To enter a
new request
click on the
button. Use the
button to search for specimen in the collection and the
button to remove unwanted
specimen from your
list.
