SPECIFY HOLD PICKUP LOCATIONS

OPTIONAL

This step is necessary only if you have purchased Hold pickup messages for multiple pickup locations.

  1. Record message components for all pickup locations Step 3: Record messages

  2. Add a new message profile for each pickup location Step 4.1: Add message profiles

  3. Edit the TNS Location Map File in your Innovative character-based system as follows:

    3.1 Connect to your character-based Innovative system using Telnet or your regular method of connecting.
    Select:
    C > CIRCULATION subsystem
    A > ADDITIONAL circulation functions
    N > PRINT Circulation Notices
    M > EDIT TNS LOCATION MAP FILE
    You will only see this line if you have multiple hold pickup messages

    3.2 Select the option A > ADD an entry

    3.3 Enter the location part only of the message profile name that contains the message components for each Hold pickup location you have purchased

    For example, if the message profile name is HPØmain, enter only main

    As TNS is case sensitive, make sure the entry uses exactly the same case as you used in the TNS message profile.

    3.4 To associate specific branch locations with this pickup location, select A > ADD a location. Enter a library location code that corresponds with the pickup location(e.g., mfic)
