Chapter 7. SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION
Designating “Mandatory” Fields
The ILL Request Form and Blank Request Form can contain a combination of required and optional data fields (elements). “System required” mandatory elements are indicated by the notation “Sys Req” (in the Mandatory on (Staff/Patron) Form column of the STAFF Form and PATRON Form fields. These fields are always included in the request form and are always mandatory. “System required” elements that are not mandatory are identified by the notation “N/A” in the Mandatory on (Staff/Patron) Form column of the STAFF Form and PATRON Form fields. These fields are always included in the request form and are never mandatory. Elements that you may optionally designate as mandatory are indicated by a checkbox in the Mandatory on (Staff/Patron) Form column of the STAFF Form and PATRON Form fields.
To designate “mandatory” elements:
- Use the Mandatory on Staff Form or Mandatory on Patron Form checkboxes to
designate an element as “mandatory.”
- A checkmark indicates the element is mandatory.
- An empty checkbox indicates the element is not mandatory.
- Clicking a checkbox repeatedly will toggle it on and off.
- When all desired “mandatory” elements have been configured as desired, click the Submit button to save your changes.
