MULTISELECTION GROUPS 
The Multiselection Groups feature allows you to associate combinations of location codes, fund codes, and number of copies with a login. A screen similar to the following appears:
During order record creation, you can use Multiselection Groups as a quick method to order copies for multiple locations.
The first step is to create Multiselection Groups in Millennium Acquisitions as part of the Acquisitions parameters.
The Multiselection Groups are created in Admin| Parameters| Acquisitions| Multiselection Groups
For additional information about creating Multiselection Groups, refer to the Innovative Guide and Reference, Page # 105932: Maintaining Multiselection Groups
You can then use the Multiselection Groups tab in Settings to specify which groups display for each login. Users can access Multiselection Groups available to them when creating/editing order records in both the Orders and Selection Lists modes.
Add to or remove from your list of Preferred Groups by doing the following:
| Add to your list |  | Select the group in the Other Groups list and click the left arrow. |
| Remove from your list |  | Select the group in the Preferred Groups list and click the right arrow.

To move multiple groups at the same time, select the groups by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking on the names. Then choose the appropriate arrow button.

When you click on a Multiselection Group, you will see the combination of locations, funds, and numbers of copies associated with that group in the Preview Multiselection Group table.
From the Default Group drop-down menu, select how the Preferred Groups will be offered when you use the Multiselection Group feature to add copies: -
Always prompt: You will always be prompted by a dialog to select a Multiselection Group from the Preferred Group list when you add copies to an order.
-
Prompt to select: You will be prompted by a dialog to select a Multiselection Group from the Preferred Group list the first time that you add copies to an order. Afterwards, the Multiselection Group you chose will automatically be used as the default group for the remainder of the session. When starting a new session, you will be prompted again to choose a default group.
-
[ name of group ]: Choose a Multiselection Group from the drop-down menu. The Multiselection Group you choose will be the default selection, and you will not be prompted by a dialog to select a group when you add copies to an order.
When you edit location, fund, and copy information, Millennium displays the Edit Data dialog. By choosing the Add Group button, Millennium will either automatically populate the table with the combinations of locations, funds, and number of copies defined for that Multiselection Group; or, depending upon the settings for your login, prompt you to choose a Multiselection Group.
Edit Data dialog:
Example 1: If Default Group is set to Prompt to select or Always prompt, you will be prompted to choose from the groups in the Preferred Groups list:
Example 2: If Default Group has a Multiselection Group predefined, the system automatically populates the Location, Fund and # Copies fields with the appropriate values:
