Question: How to send library check out receipt to borrower?
Answer: Starting from version 3.0 you can send check out receipts.
Question:
Does your library software
support the printing of "when due notices" on receipt printers that can be printed
when the book is checked-out and inserted in the pocket of
the book so the borrower knows when the book is due
back to the library?
Answer: You can include the due date when printing library
receipts or/and when sending e-mail receipts.
Question:
Just a few questions about your small library system:
1) Are you able to print overdue notices for borrowers?
2) Will it keep track of items signed out for each individual borrower?
3) Are you able to transfer our spreadsheet data to this program?
Answers:
You can print overdue notices in the manage loans window.
The program keeps track of all loaned-out items.
Send your data to us, and we will review and transfer it.
Question: Is it possible to customize the receipts?
Answer: Yes, you can customize the layout of the check-out receipt. (customize check-out receipt)
Question: The feature to create a custom letter to print reminder letters to patrons doesn't allow to change font and wastes paper (just sends the txt file to printer). We tried using a custom report where we can change font and layout but cannot add a polite custom message. any suggestions?
Answer: The report feature provides the report Title box. Maybe you can use this box to enter a polite custom message.
