As you receive items with workslip notes, Horizon places workslips in batches for printing if your system administrator has set up Horizon to do so. (For more information, see “Setting Up Options for Workslip Printing at Receiving” in the “Workslips” section of the Acquisitions Setup Guide.) Based on the workstation ID where each workslip is created, Horizon assigns every workslip batch a number for tracking purposes. This number identifies batches and is helpful when you need to print or delete (purge) batches.
Horizon also lets you select another workstation’s ID so you can display, print, or delete workslips created at another workstation.
Every workstation with a specified workstation ID has its own unique current batch number. If you create workslips at a workstation without an assigned workstation ID, then Horizon pools your workslips for printing in one batch with all workslips from other workstations without IDs. (For more information about assigning a workstation ID, see “Setting a Workstation’s ID” in the “Workslips” section of the Acquisitions Setup Guide.)
Workslip batches remain in Horizon until you delete them. Since batches can build up over time, your library may want to set a policy for the length of time workslip batches are allowed to remain in Horizon.
If you do an Undo Receive for items received on a PO line, and these items are attached to a workslip batch, Horizon removes the items from the batch.
