Enabling Check Shelf alerts
During the Check Shelf Order function, the DLA displays Checkshelf alert
messages that can help you identify items that may belong on a different shelf
(even though they are in the correct shelf order for the shelf that you just scanned).
"Checkshelf" items appear near the beginning or end of the shelf.
You may want to disable (uncheck) the “Check Shelf” alerts checkbox to
avoid excessive alert messages when checking the shelf order of shelving carts.
If you read a shelf where a patron misplaced a book near the end of the shelf and, the book’s correct shelf
location is after the shelf that you just read.
The book is in the correct shelf order (at the end of the shelf you just read) but it may not be in the correct
location. The DLA will display an alert message and you can determine if you must re-shelve the book.
If you read a shelf where a patron misplaced a book near the beginning of the shelf and, the book’s correct
shelf location is before the shelf that you just read.
The book is in the correct shelf order (at the beginning of the shelf you just read) but it may not be in the correct
location. The DLA will display an alert message and you can determine if you must re-shelve the book.
If, while reading a shelf, you accidentally move the DLA into an adjacent shelf (left or right), the DLA may
read one of the books on the adjacent shelf.
The book was detected in the correct shelf order but it is located on an adjacent shelf.
The DLA will display an alert message and you can determine if the book is correctly shelved.
Adjust your scanning technique to avoid accidentally reading items on adjacent shelves.
Enabling Backgound inventory
Select (check) the Background inventory checkbox to save the Item ID of each tag
read while using other DLA functions (such as Check Shelf Order).
• The Background inventory checkbox only appears if you selected User choice
in the Admin Settings screen.
• The Item IDs read while background inventory is active are always saved in
the Inventory category.
• To view the number of Item IDs saved in the Inventory category, select the
Setup Lists function from the Home menu.
The Background Inventory function does not collect Item ID location
information, if used.
