Update Digital Titles
Notes: |
There are two types of Follett Digital Update jobs – daily and partial. The daily job checks for any added or removed digital titles and updates your catalog accordingly. Changes include:
- Removing titles you hide from the catalog.
- Removing titles not owned by the site or shared by the district.
- Adding new titles.
- Removing limited-use titles that have reached their checkout limit or are expired.
- Updating titles with new information.
Note: Expired or hidden copies are only deleted if you have Destiny configured to do so. To review or edit the setting, select Catalog > Search Setup > Digital sub-tab. In the Synchronize Titles section, select the Remove titles and copies that are expired or hidden checkbox. |
If you want to run updates immediately, you can do so manually at any time.
A partial job runs when a new order is processed, and only adds new titles. Other changes are handled via the daily job. Follett Digital orders are processed multiple times a day.
Note: Follett Audiobooks are delivered via the daily Follett Digital Update job. |
To review the latest Follett Digital Update Job Summary:
- Select Admin > Job Manager.
- From the Job Manager page, find the most recent Follett Digital Update job, and then click View.
- Review the report. Use the following table to learn more about the status messages:
Message Details Skipped If your Destiny already contains a copy of the title, then no changes are made.
Added The title was added to Destiny.
Notice The MARC record is either hidden or is not part of your collection.
Removed If you selected the Remove titles and copies that are expired or hidden checkbox, then the noted title and copies are deleted.
Note: If there is a Manage Destiny Copies link in the status message, use it to add copies (optional). You do not need to add copies of Follett Digital titles, as Destiny automatically tracks the appropriate amount of copies. The availability of copies appears in both Destiny Discover and Destiny Back Office; however, you need to add copies to see a copy count in a title's details in Destiny Back Office. |
