Troubleshooting Steps for Alma Acquisitions - Activation

Commonly encountered issues 

  1. POL for electronic inventory says the inventory is not activated. 
    1. Check whether the collection or portfolio you activated links to the POL. You may have activated a different record than you have linked to the POL. You can link that record to the POL. Then, find the record you had linked to the POL, unlink it, and delete it. 
    2. Check your Electronic Resource Activation Task List. If the title is listed, “Check access.” Then, “Activate” it and mark it “Done.” 
    3. Remember, it depends on your workflow as to whether you need to check and work from the Task List or not.
