On the User properties tab, which is present when you have selected a new or existing user for an Adloan Circulation application in the Application browser, you specify login information for every user of Adloan: every co-worker that is allowed to carry out loan transactions, has to be registered as a user, by means of his or her name and a password.

Click here for information on how to edit properties in general. And click here to read about how to manage objects in the tree view in the Application browser. On the current tab you'll find the following settings:

User name

This must be the name with which the user will be logging on to the Adlib server. Capitals and lower case letters are treated differently. In a normal or demo installation there are two users present by default: user1 and gebruiker1. It's your choice whether to leave these default user definitions present or not.

Password

Choose a unique password belonging to this username. Capitals and lower case letters are treated differently. With the standard or demo installation user1 and gebruiker1 have the password pw1.

Show issue tab

With this option you decide if the tab for issuing materials to borrowers is present when the current user has logged onto Adloan Circulation. Normally, for all issue desk employees this option should be marked. For a self-service user, this option would typically have to be marked.

Show discharge tab

With this option you decide if the tab for returning materials from borrowers is present when the current user has logged onto Adloan Circulation. Normally, for all issue desk employees this option should be marked. For a self-service user, this option can be unmarked.

Show reservations tab

With this option you decide if the tab for making reservations is present when the current user has logged onto Adloan Circulation. Normally, for all issue desk employees this option should be marked. For a self-service user, this option can be unmarked.
