Enable material type sorting profiles

Learn how to enable material sorting at self-check-in in the Wise system.

Sorting profiles allow you to control how materials are sorted per location, based on the material type. The profiles create the rules for where customers place returned items.

Items that receive status D (at automation) upon receipt must be taken by staff to their location.

To configure sorting profiles:

  1. In the Wise configuration manager, go to Ports and profile management > Profiles > (RMTSRT) RMT sorting profile.
  2. Click Open next to your institution.
  3. Click Open next to the branch for which you want to create a sorting profile.
  4. Click New. The Settings per branch window opens.
  5. Enter profile details:
    Field Description
    Type The table type is automatically generated and cannot be changed
    Branch The branch field is automatically generated and cannot be changed
    Policy material (PMT) Select a material type from the drop-down list or click the filter button next to the field to search for a material type
    Screen text at check-in Enter a message to display at the check-in screen (limit 80 characters)
    Sorting bin Select Yes if a sorting bin is used, this will give a returned item status D (at automation).
  6. Click OK to save.
