This setting determines whether the user can create item records for serial issues as part of the check-in procedure. With this setting enabled, the Create item checkbox will display on the Card tab.
For serials where an item should always be created as part of the check-in procedure, make sure the card parameter Create item during check-in is checked. The Create item checkbox will then be checked by default. Edit the card via Tools » Card Menu » Edit Card.
With Allow item creation disabled, the Create item checkbox will not display on the Card tab. Regardless of this setting, the user can create items after the issue has been checked in by using the Create Item for Box option on the Box Menu.
Example 1: When Allow item creation is enabled, clicking on the Check In button with the Create item box marked will check in the issue and automatically prompt the user for the item record data.
Example 2: When the Allow item creation setting is disabled, the Create item box does not display on the Card tab. If there is a need to create an item record, the user can optionally create the item for the issue after it has been checked in, by using the corresponding Box Menu option.
