Issue #3 - WorkFlows Serials Module Up and Running!

Issue #3 


Hello All LS!

Here are this week's SirsiDynix Updates:

WorkFlows Serials Module Active! 

Serials training was conducted on 8/8 and Serials Specialists may now begin checking serials into WorkFlows.


Hot Tip: Highlighting Drop-down Menus in WorkFlows 

Have you noticed that text in the WorkFlows drop-down menus "whites out" when you mouse over it? Does this make it difficult for you to read that text? If so, then squint no more, because we have a solution! Instructions on how to highlight text in WorkFlows drop-down menus can be found here.    


Enjoy the Summer Intersession and onward to the Fall Semester!

Issue #2 - Serials Module, View Now Button, and BCA Training Prep

Issue #2

Hello All LS!

Here's the latest from the SirsiDynix Implementation Team:

WorkFlows serials module coming soon!  

Our Serial Control module in SirsiDynix WorkFlows will be up and running by the end of August! Serials Specialists from each campus will be attending serials training on August 8th and serials processing will resume at all campuses in the Fall.


Electronic Access link on details record for e-books and streaming videos made red and put in bigger font.

When one clicks on the details record in Enterprise, it can be easy to overlook the link to open an e-book or streaming video. We've made the link heading red and slighter bigger font so that it stands out more. We're working on getting a "view now" button added similar to the one on the search results page. This will take some custom scripting work from SirsiDynix. 


Preparation for Blue Cloud Analytics Training (BCA). 

In Preparation for BCA training, please let Lola Cowling know what types of reports you created in Create Lists beyond the most basic Collection Development report that you hope to be able to duplicate in BCA by filling out this SirsiDynix Reports & Analytics needs form. There is a template for the basic Collection Development report containing the fields listed on the Collection Development Export - Fields Explanation wiki page

Keep those reports coming! 

Please keep reporting any WorkFlows or Enterprise issues, concerns, or requests (including named workstation requests) using the SirsiDynix Issue Reporting form!
