FAQ

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.
