What is it?
- This table is the work horse of the staff login. It shows everything that needs to be done for each kit based on Kit States. For more information about States, please see What is meant by a Kit State?
- Staff members can use the drop down menu in the upper right hand corner to choose what type of action they would like to see ie “Kits that require my attention.”
- The top of the box has a color legend indicating when actions need to be taken.
- This will be used primarily in the processing and check in of kits.
How Do I Read it?
- The chart has a drop down menu that lets the user choose which kits they would like to work with. For example, choosing Kits that require my attention will bring up a list of all of the kits that need to be checked in, sent out, etc.
- All of the titles are listed vertically and are color coded by their status. The legend for the colors is a static field at the top of the chart. For example, any titles highlighted in red means that any actions that they require are overdue.
- Every title entry has 6 states listed vertically across the box with a Track button at the end. A black box around a state tells the reader where the kit is currently. As the kit progresses through its journey, the black box will move down the lost of states to the end like a washing machine going through its cycles or a train moving down the track.
What is the Track Button For?
- The track button is the check out function of the KitKeeper system and allows staff members to track the progress of a kit.
- Once the track button is selected, the Kit Tracking page will open. This page allows the staff member to scan the barcode of the kit to send it to the next part of its journey. For example, when a pickup library has received a kit, a staff member will log into KitKeeper, find the correct title in the Staff Action Chart, click track and then scan the barcode of the kit.
- Only scan the barcode once. Any extra scans will cause KitKeeper to incorrectly display the location of a kit.
- Once the kit has been tracked, an email will be sent to the library or patron automatically when they need to come pick up the kit or do some action.
In short, how do I track a kit?
- Select what action you would like to take from the drop down menu in the upper right hand corner i.e Kits that Require My Attention.
- Find the kit that you would like to work with and click Track.
- The Kit Tracking Window will open up. Verify that the correct button for the action you would like to take is highlighted.
- Scan the kits barcode OR click the highlighted button and follow the instructions on the screen.
- After scanning the barcode a confirmation screen will appear asking you if you are sure you would like to do this. This is the time to cancel the action if a kit was mistakenly scanned.
