IMPORTANT NOTE: When updating a Participant Record for an ISO trading partner, content is required in all External Communications fields. If one or more fields are left blank, an advisory message displays when the Participant Record is saved. Additionally, the ISO System Code and Code Type fields (assigned by Auto-Graphics) must be unique. If the system detects the ISO System Code and Code Type values have been assigned to another library, an advisory message displays. Contact Auto-Graphics for assistance.
- Verify that a standard ISO System Code and Code Type have been assigned to the library by Auto-Graphics.
- Select ISO ILL from the System type menu.
- Select the transmission method for ILL requests from the Transport method

- If Direct connection (TCP/IP) was selected as the Transport method, enter the address and port number for the computer that will process requests in the Computer or Email Address and Computer Port No. fields.
- If E-mail (SMTP) was selected as the Transport method, enter the email address to which requests should be sent in the Computer or Email Address field. Leave the Computer Port No. field blank.
