For reference, the library setting in question is in group "Library" named "Change reshelving status interval".
Some theorizing.... if the setting remains unset, I believe it defaults to waiting 24 hours before marking any copy back to an "available" status whenever the script is run. So this might mean that if an item is checked in at 2 pm on a Monday, it won't be set to "available" till after 2 pm the next day Tuesday, and then actually changed whenever the script is run. So if you schedule it to run at midnight every day, it could potentially take upwards of 36 hours to change the item's status (24 hours wait for the time to pass, then another 10 hours to hit midnight from 2 pm, the next day). This might explain some of the sporadic inconsistencies. In our system, we set the reshelving interval setting to "1 hour", but then we run the reshelving_complete.srfsh script once a night to change over all the materials at once. Basically this nets us the effect of overnight status change, with everything being available again the next day. -- Ben On Tue, Nov 25, 2014 at 9:22 AM, Jason Stephenson <jstephen...@mvlc.org> wrote: > Quoting Janice Huber <janice.hu...@asburyseminary.edu>: > >> Can someone please advise?
