Moving the Transaction to the Next Step

The next step in the process may differ depending on the nature of the transaction:

ActionDescription
Mark FoundMark Found if you found the item and you are able to loan it to the customer. This will route the request to Awaiting Doc Del Customer Contact. If Billing for Document Delivery is turned on, it will first bring up the Add Billing Charges form. See Awaiting DocDel Customer Contact for instructions on contacting customers.
Mark Not FoundMark Not Found if the item cannot be loaned, but may still be able to be borrowed. The Reasons for Not Found list will open, and you can select a reason from the list. These reasons can be edited in the DocDelNotFoundReasons table in the ILLiad Customization Manager (located under **Doc Del
Cancel RequestCancel the request if the item cannot be loaned and it can not be borrowed. The Reason for Cancellation list will open, and you can select a reason from the list. These reasons can be edited in the DocDelNotFoundReasons table in the ILLiad Customization Manager (located under **Doc Del
Mark Found Scan NowMark Found Scan Now for articles that will be scanned and delivered to the customer electronically via Odyssey. The Document Delivery Scanning form will display. This will allow you to scan and send the article immediately.
Mark Found Scan LaterMark Found Scan Later for articles that will be scanned and delivered electronically via Odyssey, but not immediately. The request will be moved to the status of Awaiting Doc Del Scanning, and scanning can be done at a later time.
Notify Electronic DeliveryNotify Electronic Delivery designates the item as found and moves the transaction to Delivered to Web. This is used for scanning the article using software other than Odyssey. These items will need to be scanned, converted to PDF, and then saved to the PDF share drive (usually x:\inetpub\wwwroot\illiad\pdf) with the filename as the transaction number of the request.


TIP: Institutions that use this feature find it beneficial to do the scanning and posting functions before clicking the Notify Electronic Delivery button. This is because the status changes to Delivered to Web immediately after clicking the button and an email is sent to the customer notifying them that the file is available for viewing.
