<h1>Inventory/Stocktaking</h1><h2>How do I use this feature?</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>This inventory feature works by using the "Last Seen Date" as criteria for building reports. From these reports the library can identify which items are missing.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>How do I get a file of barcodes to upload?</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The easiest way to generate the barcode file is to scan the barcodes of all the items on the shelf in situ to a text file. This can be done using a standard keyboard wedge type Barcode scanner and a Laptop, or using a handheld PC with an integrated scanner (e.g Palm or iPaq).</p><p>Save the file locally to your machine and then when you are attached to the network, open the Inventory/Stocktaking page again and use the "Browse" feature to find the file on your local drive. Now set the last seen to the date you wish to use (normally today's date). </p>

<h2>How do I find what items are missing?</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now you have set the Last Seen Date of the items, you can use that as a criteria to generate a report. Use the "Select items you want to check" feature to generate this report. </p><p>NOTE: If you have scanned all the items in your library, you will not need to change any of the default criteria.</p><p>Set the "Not seen since" date to the day <strong>before </strong>the date you used when you set the "Last Seen Date" when uploading the barcode file.</p><p>Press the "Submit" button to generate the list of items that Koha has not seen. </p>
