Initialization allows the district to simultaneously approve a new ISBN for a campus and distribute the ISBN to the same campus, with a starting quantity. The displayed titles in the District Inventory grid (top grid) only contain titles not been previously distributed to the respective campus.
Click on Tools, located on the Navigation Bar.
Click on Initialization, located under Global Tools subcategory. This opens the Initialization - Select Campus page.
Search for the desired campus.
Click on Initialize Campus, located on the same row.
Search for the desired ISBN (new to this campus).
Review the current ISBN's district storage count, located under the Storage column.
Enter the starting quantity for the respective ISBN in the Quantity field. Quantity cannot exceed district storage count.
Click on Add All.
Click on Save. This approves all of the ISBNs listed in the lower grid for the campus, adds the ISBNs and their quantities to the campus' inventory, and removes the same ISBNs' quantities from the district storage count.
If a data entry mistake happens and is caught prior to clicking Save, edit the title within the Confirmation grid (lower grid). Do this by clicking on
Edit or clicking on
Delete in the respective ISBN's row.
