Each day that the application is used, its record of overdue books and fines, the processing of reserves, and other period functions must be updated. You perform these updates through the Daily Processing panel of the Main form. To access this panel, click on the Daily Processing button on the left side of the form. You may also use the F8 key.
Processing can be performed on a single location, or on all locations at once. Before running the daily process for a location, you should check-in any books that are to be marked as checked-in before today's date. Once you run the daily process, all overdue items not yet checked in will be charged fines as needed.
To perform the daily processing, select the location to process (or "All Locations") from the Process Location field, then click the Process button.
Each time that a patron connects to the system to either view their record or check out additional items, all currently checked-out items belonging to that patron are processed as if they were being brought up to date through the Daily Process procedure.
