New Bar-code Label Screen

 

 

You got to this screen by depressing the New Button on the Main Screen.

 

From this screen you accomplish the printing of all your New Book Labels.   Generally, you DO NOT allow store credits to be used to purchase these books.  By checking the "Allow Credits" Check Box, the book will be entered as allowing credits.

 

When you first enter into this screen, the information displayed is irrelevant, and should be ignored.  The task of printing labels is accomplished in several steps.

 

 

It is vital that you set up your defaults prior to scanning books' ISBNs.  Failure to do so will cause incorrect information to be entered into your Book Inventory Database.  Nothing will be damaged, but you will need to recreate the labels.  Please see Dealing with Disabled Elements

 

 

 

See Label Default Frame Parameters

 

 


Please go and pull a Nora Robert's "Villa" and "Midnight Bayou" if you want to follow along.  We will assume for this exercise that these are new books.

 

This entire process took just a few seconds.  You could continue scanning an entire shelf of General Fiction Books.  When done with that shelf of Genre, just make the necessary changes to the defaults frame and continue.  

 

Scan "Midnight Bayou".
