Counties
The Counties table is used to provide information about counties within the library organization. This information is used to generate reports in the Wise system.
To add counties to the table:
- Navigate to Management organizations > System tables > Counties.
- Click New.
- Provide information in the Counties fields.
- Click OK to save.
Counties fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| County ID | Unique identifier for each county. Limit 4 characters. |
| Description | County name |

| State | State in which the county resides. |

Opening hours
The Opening hours table is used to establish the library's operating hours. Opening hours can be imported into the system during implementation. Opening hours are defined per block of time that a library is open. For example, if the library closes during the middle of the day on Wednesdays, two opening hours lines must be added to account for the morning and afternoon openings of the library. Hours can be set at the system or branch level.
To add opening hours to the table:
- Navigate to Management organizations > System tables > Opening hours.
- Click New.
- Provide information in the Opening hours fields.
- Click OK to save.
Opening hours fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Branch |
Select the branch or library system to which the hours apply. If hours are set at the system level, they will be applied to all of the branches within that system, with the exception of any branches that are added independently to the table. Branch hours should be defined before system hours are defined. |
| Type |
Select an hours type:
|
| Day | Day designations |
| Sequence number | When there are several lines for one day, such as morning and evening opening hours, this number will determine the order in which the times are displayed. |
| Text |
Text that is displayed for each line. Example: 9:00 am - 1:30 pm |
Note: When opening hours are defined at the system level, all branches in the system follow those hours. When opening hours for a specific branch are defined, those times will override the system hours.
(HFD) Follow home branch
A customer's home branch is established when they sign up for an account. The home branch is used for generating customer counts and reports. The home branch cannot be changed during a paid membership period.
The settings in this table tell the system how to determine the home branch during a customer's registration session. By default, the home branch is determined by where the customer registers for an account. The system can also be configured to determine the home branch based on the customer's ZIP code.
The system option HFDPWYK must be enabled. This option must enabled for the applicable institution.
In order to use the ZIP code to determine the home branch, the ZIP code must be a required field during customer registration. Home branches are associated with ZIP codes in the Counties table.
To configure Follow home branch settings:
- Go to Management organizations > System tables > Follow home branch.
- Click New.
- Provide information in the Follow home branch fields.
- Click OK to save.

| Description | Description of the system/branch being configured. |
