Circulation transaction history
A list of the user's circulation transactions is displayed in the user's Account details page when they click the History tab.
By default this includes the most recent 50 Issue and Collect transactions from the past 1000 days:
Limiting to these transaction types significantly reduces the time it takes to display the account details screen, particularly for users with a large number or circulation transactions on their account.
In OLIB Web you can configure:
- A setting to limit the loan history displayed
- The display of a Previous Loans list and/or Loan History list
Limit the loan history
Limit by transaction type
By default, Folio displays the Issue (ISS) and Collect (COL) transactions.
To change this you need to create or edit the history_trantps setting in g_user_details:
- Go to OPAC> Configuration Settings.
- Search for e.g. history.
- Open history_trantps in modify or if it does not yet exist then create it:
| Field | Value | 說明 |
|---|---|---|
| Config Block | g_user_details | |
| 場景 | history_trantps | |
| 說明 | A semi-colon separated list of circulation transaction types to limit the Loan History list by transaction type. | |
| Value | "ISS;COL" | Enter the desired Transaction Types as a semi-colon separated list encased in double quotes e.g. "ISS;COL;RET;REN". This will exclude other Transaction Types such as Reservations and Holds. |
| Allowable Values | A semi-colon separated list of circulation transaction types. | |
| Sequence 1 | 65 | |
| Sequence 2 | 0 | |
| Include? | 是 | Set to Yes |
When you re-load Folio, the user Account details page: History tab displays any transaction types you configured.
Limit by age of transaction
By default, Folio displays transactions from the previous 1000 days.
To change this you need to edit the history_limit_days setting in g_user_details.
- Go to OPAC> Configuration Settings.
- Search for e.g. history.
- Open history_limit_days in modify mode:
| Field | Value | 說明 |
|---|---|---|

| 場景 | history_limit_days | |
| 說明 | How many days worth of circulation transactions to list in the Loan History tab. | |

Limit by number of transactions
By default Folio displays the most recent 50 transactions.
To change this you need to edit the history_limit setting in g_user_details.
- Go to OPAC> Configuration Settings.
- Search for e.g. history.
- Open history_limit in modify mode:
| Field | Value | 說明 |
|---|---|---|
| Config Block | g_user_details | |
| 場景 | history_limit | |
| 說明 | The maximum number of circulation transactions to list in the Loan History tab. | |
