Clear loan status for processed items that were never scanned in

When items from Voyager were migrated to SCF IZ in 2018 and items found afterwards,eventually then added, this caused Alma to assign the loan status to the items even though items were already in the SCF.

Also, after items get processed in Alma and people who does the processing may forget to scan them in which would mean the loan status would remain.

In order to clear the loan status, we will need to use Analytics to identify items with the loan date that has the same date as when items are created.

In Analytics:

Item Call Number can be any row.  In this screenshot, it is row 1.

 

Click on the up arrow in the Last Loan Date (calendar) column to put the dates in order starting with the earliest date.

No dates between Last Loan Date (calendar) and Item Creation Date are the same and this means these items are actual loans.

 

 

There are dates between Last Loan Date (calendar) and Item Creation Date that are the same and this means the loans are not real and they will need to be cleared.

 

Copy the item barcodes to Notepad and save the file to anywhere on the computer.
