ILL Shipping Details Slip (POS)

Create this notification template to print a Point of sale (POS) ILL Shipping Details slip when ILL items are checked in or out.

Use this template to configure a point of sale (POS) printing notification to be printed immediately upon:

  • Checking in a borrowed ILL item that is ready to be returned.
  • Checking out an ILL item to lend to a borrowing library.
  • Checking in or checking out ILL items that are part of ZFL-Server integration workflows. 

The ILL Shipping Details Slip (POS) cannot be enabled until the template is complete. The ILL Shipping Details Slip is not available via email, only using Network Print and Point of sale (POS). 

The ILL Shipping Details Slip (POS) template configured under Next-Generation Notifications > Templates > Point of sale (POS) printing is for POS only. For the Network Print template, see ILL Shipping Details Slip.

No notification scheduling is used for this template, and only a single template can be configured for this notification type per institution (one each for Network Printing and POS). 

 Caution: When a library enables a Next-Generation Notification, its corresponding legacy notification(s) will be disabled (if they had previously been enabled). For Group Aware libraries, OCLC recommends coordinating a single rollout window for Next-Generation Notifications across the consortium to avoid patrons experiencing mixed notification experiences when borrowing from multiple libraries.
