Configure Display of Date on ReceiptsConfigure Display of Date on ReceiptsThe Configure Display of Date on Receipts policy is a Global Configuration policy that is read by the WorkFlows client at startup and stored as a global variable. This policy allows you to control whether the month is displayed at text or as a number on circulation receipts. When the WorkFlows client is configured to display text for month, the language for the client will determine how the month text and date format will display.
For example, instead of displaying the date as 12/10/2008 on circulation receipts, the date could be displayed as December 12, 2008 (or 12 October 2008, depending on the WorkFlows client language). All circulation receipt types will be affected, including charge receipts, available hold slips, transit slips, reshelving slips, hold wrappers, payment slips, and credit slips.
For any Circulation receipt that is configured to include the current time on the receipt, the month will be abbreviated to three letters if the month is configured to display as text. For example, a charge receipt configured to show the current time (with the month shown as text), the date and time displays like Dec 21 2009 1:05pm.”
The Configure Display of Date on Receipts policy appears on the Circulation tab of the Global Configuration wizard. The default value for this policy appears in the Select a Policy window. To modify this value, select Configure Display of Date on Receipts and click Modify. Click a radio button to select one of the policy attributes. Click Save to save your selection. The default is Display Month as Text on Receipts.
