My Items

This section of the configurator contains settings for the My Items basket used in document ordering and other settings relevant to document ordering, such as user authentication.
 

My Items

If this option is selected, 'My Items' basket features will be available. These features are:

  • A 'My Items' area near the top of each CalmView page, which shows a link to the basket and how many items it currently contains
     
  • A column on the overview (search results) page, with a link to add that item to the basket
     
  • A link on the record page, to add that item to the basket
     

Label field
Choose from the dropdown list of Catalog fields and click the Save button. The field chosen here is usually 'RefNo' or 'AltRefNo'. The selected field is displayed in the ID column of the 'My Items' page. It is also shown (for identification) as part of the message that states an item is being added to the My Items basket, or the warning message if you are trying to add an item to the basket that is already there.
 

Description field
Choose from the dropdown list of Catalog fields and click the Save button. The field chosen here is usually 'Title' or 'Description'. The selected field is displayed in the Title column of the 'My Items' page.


Order method

This option determines the method for document ordering - None (no document ordering features available), Calm (online ordering connected directly to your live Calm system) or Offline (orders requested by email). Choose from the dropdown list and click the Save button.


Maximum order items per day
Enter a number that represents the maximum number of items that one user can order per day and click the Save button. This limit will be checked as part of the Calm-based/online document ordering process and the user will not be allowed to order more items than this.


Maximum order items total
Enter a number that represents the maximum number of items that one user can order (regardless of dates chosen) and click the Save button. This limit will be checked as part of the Calm-based/online document ordering process and the user will not be allowed to order more items than this.


User registration

If this option is selected, researchers can register themselves as users within CalmView, using the 'Register User' link near the top of each page.

If this option is not selected, members of staff will need to enter user's details directly into Calm and store them as User records. Existing users can still log in to CalmView and use it, including editing their own profile/contact details.


User profile edit

If this option is selected, a link appears in the user summary area (near the top of each page) allowing a logged in user to change their profile i.e. contact details.
 

Log off after order completed

This option is not selected by default. When it is selected, a user will be automatically logged out on completion of an order.


Underneath 'My Items', there are extra configuration options. User Profile Fields allows you to set up the fields for new users to create a profile so that they can order items. Offline Document Ordering alters settings for the offlie method of document ordering. User Registration Redirect determins what happens immediately after a user has created a profile.
