The Circulation log app allows you to view and search for circulation actions. Circulation actions are any action performed by the system or a user within the following Circulation apps: Check in, Check out, and Requests. Notices and fee/fine actions are also included.
Table of Contents
FOLIO community documentation for the Circulation log app includes the permissions required to interact with the app, and that determine what you can or cannot do within the app.
You can assign permissions to users in the Users app. If none of these permissions are assigned to a user, then they will be unable to see the Circulation log app or any related information.
You can generate a log based on any of the query parameters or filters you select.
