►Serials Management Reference Data > Circulation Lists
A journal circulation list can be created with any number of members on the list. Circulation Lists can be printed when needed as a batch after checking in issues. Each circulation list has a name and is attached to one or more Serial Copy records.
Note: Circulation lists are associated with individual Serial Copy records, not journal titles. The link to a Serial Copy is entered when the Serial Copy is created or modified.
This ensures there is no confusion about which list a 'checked in' issue is for. This is particularly useful when there are multiple lists for journals at various locations and not all the issues arrive at the same time.
Note: If you want a circulation list to be printed it is normally added to the Serial Copy before issues are generated. If you add it after the issues are generated, then when you add the circulation list, use the Update Circ.List on Iss.Copies button in Serial Copies. This will assign the Serial copy circulation list to all the Issue Copies that are still expected / to be checked-in.
Circulation Lists can be created at several points in the serials management process. Here it is assumed that the list will be created directly in the Circulation Lists domain and attached to the Serial Copy record later in the process.
Note: To re-order the position of members on the Circulation List, select the user and click Up/Down to re-sequence.
This is where you record when an issue is sent to the first user on the circulation list, when the user returns it and when it is sent to the next user on the list. In this way, you can keep track of the exact location of each copy of each issue.
There are a number of different options for the information about the members of Circulation Lists which the System Manager can include on the layouts used to print the list. The System Manager should change the Routing List layouts, using the WorldView Client, to include the chosen option - or create a new layout for their own Circulation Lists.
