Hi Jennifer,
It looks like everyone else has covered your question regarding deleted
items. To answer your other question:
To top it off, I am still wondering how items get into the reshelving
status? Is the ONLY trigger the checkin function?
As far as I know, the only way items will go into reshelving is if you
check then in, if you manually change the status in the copy editor, or
if you update the status in the database. The checkin will change the
status to reshelving even if the item was not checked out to a patron.
For example, if the item was listed as available, it will change to
reshelving if you scan it in the checkin interface.

All –
Ok. I have a real mystery for you. We are still trying to figure
out our “reshelving” status issue. Some items have gotten that
status and REFUSE to go out of that status with the script running on
the server.
So. I keep running the “list items by status” report to see what is
still not changing. And on that list are two items (with title and
barcode) that ARE NOT IN THE SYSTEM! What? I can’t bring up the
item by title or by barcode. It is not in the system. As a matter of
fact we deleted those items and marc records just two days ago. So,
why do those two still show up when I run the report?? That is so weird.
To top it off, I am still wondering how items get into the
reshelving status? Is the ONLY trigger the checkin function? Or
do other actions trigger that status? I think we are getting some
real mystery items into that status and then they refuse to leave.
When I look up the items to see more information, there is no
check in date. How can that be?
Put on your thinking caps. This one is a real stinker. At least
it is to me.
Thanks!
Jennifer
