Reserve In Transit Receipt
When an inter-branch reserve item is in transit to the borrowing library (the item is being loaned), and the item is checked in at a library other than the borrowing library, the system generates an “in transit receipt” indicating the library to which the item should be forwarded. The system also generates an email to the borrowing library.
You can configure a unique Reserve In Transit Receipt for each location in your system.

-
From the Circ Admin menu, select Notices - Reserve In Transit Receipt.
