  • 0 = no errors

  • 3 = item is not in EMS database
  • 4 = item is "lost" in EMS database

There are several time stamps associated with work requests:

  • Receive Time = the time EMS receives the message (from Alma or manually)
  • Schedule Time = the time EMS schedules action on the message (usually the same as receive time, but may be delayed if SRMs are off; for example if a pick request is received after hours, it will be scheduled for the next morning)
  • Active Time = the time the bin arrives at the pick station (n/a for Adds and Deletes)
  • Transmit Time = the time the work request is completed (n/a for Audits); for a pick, when the item is scanned.

Alma-Dematic Integration

  • Ex Libris Documentation
  • Temple location codes with Dematic integration:
    • ASRS ASRS
    • ASRS ASRS_TEST
    • ASRS media
    • ASRS reference
  • Update Remote Storage Inventory job is scheduled for every 2 hours
  • Note: Alma-Dematic integration is one-way only. Alma sends inventory & request info to EMS but does not receive any messages back. Alma messages only communicate barcode, title, author, and call number; for requests, it also sends patron barcode, patron name, and pickup location. There is no synchronization of item process/status between EMS and Alma.
