Associating receivers with journals

 

You can use Option 9 on the Work with Journals display if the journal was restored or created again. The system associates all applicable receivers with the restored or recreated journal so that a restore of these receivers is not necessary.

The system now displays the Specify Journal Receivers screen. There are new input lines so you can enter specific receivers, generic receivers or *ALL. Additionally, the second input line allows a library to be specified so the checking for valid receivers is now restricted to a specific library instead of searching the entire system to find all receivers and checking all of these receivers to see if they should be associated with this newly created journal. This new screen significantly speeds up the reassociation of receivers to a journal.
