Hi Kathleen, Thanks for your answer. I'm curious what use you are making of the response file, since it's pretty much indecipherable to the human eye? Our old system used the response to indicate if an individual title was back ordered or canceled, so the librarian would know whether to expect the title or not. Aside being listed with the EDI messages for the PO, what purpose does the response file serve in Evergreen?

In that message, I can see if the PO was successfully sent, the day, time, account. Unfortunately, there is no information inserted into each line item on the PO. I would think the information for each line item *could* be viewable since the vendors have to translate each one in their system; there must be some kind of ID. I don't know if that is true. However, I agree it would be useful to have the EDI message in each line item. As it is, searching for a title then "view/place orders" will give a link to a PO but does not take us directly to the line item of the PO; only the entire PO. This makes for a lot of scrolling to find the line item. We have capped the number of titles to 10-20 on a single PO to minimize scrolling... including the receiving process.

I can see 2 EDI messages attached to the PO. However, I'm not certain what to expect from the response file. In our old system, messages were attached to individual line items in fairly clear language. In Evergreen, we can see the contents of the response, but it's a long string of codes and plus signs. What should we be looking for? Thanks, Mary Mary Llewellyn Database Manager Bibliomation, Inc.

First, we have org units set up as follows: - Consortium - Region - Town (system) - Library/Branch Christine Morgan from Noble provided me the setup they are testing and it was working for them. I checked my permissions and the only difference we had was that I had "Manage Providers" in addition to "Admin" providers. I removed "Manage Providers" and that did nothing. Our org unit structure is also different. I then tested it to see what the login could see if the permission was set for consortium vs. region vs. system vs. branch. Under branch and system I had the same problem with no providers showing but for region and consortium I could see providers but it did not seem to recognize the permission for anything below the send level. The region appeared to also drop some of the providers but I have been unable to determine what would be unique about the providers it drops.

This question came up recently on the list with Joseph Lewis bringing up the possibilities: http://libmail.georgialibraries.org/pipermail/open-ils-general/2011-June/005 014.html For an example of our implementation see: http://libcat.mohawkcollege.ca/opac/en-CA/skin/default/xml/rdetail.xml?r=369 84&t=linux&tp=keyword&d=0&hc=22&rt=keyword This allows users with cell phones to scan the QR code and load copy location information to their mobile device (with barcode scanner). It does not require phone service on the device -- just open your barcode scanner app, point your devices camera and scan the code. Our implementation used the Google charts api to generate the codes on the fly on a Google server. In other words, we are not storing those images on our server or creating code images for each item copy location. For changesets to the code (Evergreen 2.0.6): http://libdog.mohawkcollege.ca/projects/evergreen/changeset/109 For more info on QR codes: http://brain.mohawkcollege.ca/QRCodes I am willing to provide a patch to the code base but had a concern about whether it can be easily adapted to the future templated opac? I wasn't sure about which version of Evergreen this would be implemented if it was added and I was not sure about the OPAC template switch time line. The feature does have a on/off toggle in the code. Let me know if you recommend that I submit a patch in Launchpad.
