Why is Acquisitions not placing a holding on our items we've received and invoiced?

Applies to
  • WorldShare Acquisitions
Answer

The Acquisitions workflow will only place a WorldCat holding on items that have an LHR created in the workflow's process, or items that patrons have requested. LHR creation is limited to monographic items and serials, and a barcode and call number are required to be placed in when prompted in order for the LHR to be created. Because of this, WorldCat holdings won't be automatically added on received eBooks, for example. Purchase Requests are not restricted by this.
