Changing an Issue’s Status

Serials assigns a status to each issue. Statuses include:

Expected. Issues that Serials has predicted, but not yet received.
Received. Issues that have been checked in.
Damaged. Issues that have been checked in but appeared damaged upon arrival.
Not Coming. Issues that are either not published or not available. (Horizon prompts you to choose the reason.)
Claim. Issues for which Horizon generates a claim. You can set claim status manually or automatically when Day End runs and the missing issue meets claiming parameters set up in the issue’s copy record.

You can change an issue’s status at any time.

To change an issue’s status

1 Display the Issue Detail or Copy History window for the issue.

(For instructions on how to open the Issue Detail or Copy History window for the title, see Viewing Issue Detail or Viewing Copy History.)

2 If more than one copy exists for the issue, select the copy with the issue that you want to change.
3 Click the button at the bottom of the Issue Detail or Copy History window for the status that you want to change the issue to.
