How do I reorder the Acquisition Methods drop-down menu?
The acquisition method types are:
- Approval Plan
- Depository
- Exchange
- Gift
- Legal Deposit
- Purchase
- Purchase at Vendor System
- Technical
(For more information about each, please see the Ex Libris Knowledge Center.)
To change the order of method types, go to Configuration > Acquisitions > "Purchase Orders": Acquisition Method and use the ▲/▼ arrows to re-order the methods.
Unwanted methods can be deactivated in the same table. You can also set a method to be the default option so it is automatically selected in the dropdown menu when creating a POL.
The "Acquisitions Administrator" role is required for this configuration change. If no one in your library has either of these permissions, please open a ticket with OLS Systems with your preferences.
