Configuring General Activities

You configure the various general activities from the Configuration page (Configuration Menu > General). Note that some configuration changes may impact other functional areas. Consider the impact on other functional areas before making changes to existing configurations.

On the Configuration page, the following information is displayed:

• The Configuring drop-down list, which enables you to configure options for the entire institution or libraries within the institution. Although most options are configured for the entire institution, some of the options may permit you to override or add settings per library, and some options may require you to configure them at the library-level only. See Organizational Topologies for additional information regarding Alma organizational levels.
• The list of the available configuration options, which are detailed in the following table.

For a full reference of all the code tables provided with Alma, see Alma Code Table Reference.
