04/04 Chapter 20 Taking inventory of your collection 221

Using a PHD to inventory your collection

Using a PHD to inventory your collection eliminates the extra work of bringing

the books to a workstation, thereby decreasing your overall inventory time. If

you scan the items in the order you find them on the shelves, Inventory can check

your shelf order when you process the data.

Before you start scanning, make sure to check the batteries in your PHD. We

recommend that you have extra batteries on hand in case the battery charge runs

low while collecting inventory scans:

 The PHD+, PHD+ II, and PHD Laser+ will alert you to a low battery charge

with three beeps and a LOW BATTERY message.

 A charge symbol ( ) in the lower lefthand corner of the PHD Dolphin+

display indicates the charge level of the main battery. The symbol blinks

when the battery is low.

If you have not used your PHD since last year, or if you borrowed your PHD

from another school, be sure to load the PHD application (see page 42) before

scanning barcodes.

Important: We recommend that you process your scans as soon as possible. If you

continue to circulate during an inventory, an item you scanned may

be checked out before you process the remote inventory data from the

PHD. Processing the scans will not check in the items in the PHD file.

It will, however, generate an exception report indicating the items that

already have a marked status. You can use this report to review the

shelves for items that have a status of checked out, loaned out, at the

bindery, on hold, or lost. Re-scan these items directly in the Inventory

main window to correct the copy status.

1. With your PHD, scan the barcodes of the items you want to enter into

inventory. For instructions on collecting inventory scans with the PHD+,

PHD+ II, or PHD Laser+, see Collecting inventory, copy, or patron data" on

page 663. To collect inventory scans with a PHD Dolphin+, see Collecting

inventory scans" on page 676.

Note: Make sure to erase any existing scans before you begin. To erase scans

from a PHD+, PHD+ II, or PHD Laser+, see page 664. For a PHD

Dolphin+, see page 679. You may need to collect and process inventory

scans several times before your inventory is complete.

When you finish collecting scans, connect your PHD to your computer. See

the manufacturer's documentation or Appendix E, Using a PHD+, PHD+ II,

or PHD Laser+," or Appendix F, Using a PHD Dolphin+," for instructions.
