Adding a request

You may add a patron purchase request using this screen.

  1. To add the request, click the Create Request button.

    Note

    You will need the CREATE_PURCHASE_REQUEST permission to add a request.

  2. If you have not already filtered the search using a patron’s barcode, you will be prompted to enter it before starting the request.
  3. The request type field is required. Every other field is optional, although it is recommended that you enter as much information about the request as possible.
  4. The Pickup Library, User, and Request Date/Time field will be filled in automatically.
  5. You have the option to automatically place a hold for the patron if your library decides to purchase the item. If you’d like Evergreen to generate this hold, check the Place Hold box.
  6. When you have finished entering information about the request, click the Save button.
