There are three known situations where items are created on the fly. The first example is an item that a patron brings down from the stacks that does not have a barcode or a record in Alma. The second is an instructor copy that needs to be available on reserve but that does not become part of the general collection. The third is where an item, such as an iPad or other technology, is added to an already existing holding record. Please note that the Physical Item Operator role which allows for the creation of new physical items is tied to a location.
