Create items on the fly

Find information on how to create items on the fly when unknown items are scanned during check out.

If a customer attempts to check out an item that is unknown to the Wise system, a notification will appear on the Console check-out screen and staff will have the option to allow the item to be loaned or not.

 Note: Unknown items cannot be checked out if the NO_FLY system option is configured.


If check out of unknown items is allowed, the following workflow will be available when an unknown item is scanned at check out:

  1. If no matching item is found when the barcode is scanned, the Create Record screen will appear:

  2. Material type and SCAT code are required fields and must be completed to proceed with checkout. The system will prompt you if these fields have not been completed.
  3. Add an attachment note and volume information, if applicable.
  4. Click Create.
  5. The item is created and checked out to the customer.
