SISIS-SunRise Acquisition automates your library's business processes for acquisition of media. Whether public or scientific library, centralised or decentralised media acquisition - it provides quick and uncomplicated adjustment possibilities concerning your individual organisational structures.
The complete acquisition process is mapped in SISIS-SunRise Acquisition, from bibliographic checking of books to be ordered and actual ordering, to administration of orders, up to accession and payment of bills.
Flexible Processing in Integrated Business Routines.
A multitude of process-overlapping functions support the current acquisition transactions.
Collect and manage all relevant data and conditions of your suppliers, purchasers and subject librarians and make use of this data, e.g. on
- Assignment of fixed rebates or fixed additional costs in accounting;
- Explicit release of certain budgetary titles or levels for your purchasers;
- Managing of subject librarian accounts.
On the bibliographic checking of books to be ordered, you can switch immediately to the collecting of order-related bibliographic data, even without precedent and separate inquiry in catalogue and acquisition data. In any case, an automated holdings check and a system-internal reconciliation on existing acquisition data takes place.
You have possibility of:
- creating new order catalogue entries by making use of freely definable data entry masks;
- overtaking already existing catalogue entries into the order procedure;
- making use of the external-data pool or Z39.50 databases for transfer of order data.
Where necessary, existing acquisition data as well as conditions of previous acquisitions are displayed and may be overtaken for new orders. Furthermore, for acceleration and facilitation of your work, you have possibility of pre-setting your most common order parameters as default.
Directly after the bibliographic checking of books to be ordered you can switch to the order procedure.
Here you can administrate, cancel and reclaim your orders. If required, returns are possible. Correspondency with suppliers referring to delivery periods, delayed delivery, changes in conditions, as for example increasing of prices, is deposited as information.
Dependent of individual library practise, accession processes are accomplished either separately or linked between access and payment process.
