Procedures for Entering New Stat Classes in Horizon Starting March 9th 2015

New Bstat Project and Procedures:

The new Borrower Statistical Class codes (bstat) will allow FCPL to be more precise and consistent with SJVLS in the collection of user statistics. It will also make assigning bstats during the creation of new accounts more straightforward.

This procedure change will only affect permanent residents, meaning those with addresses inside Fresno County. Continue existing procedures for other types of borrowers.

What to do when creating a new account:
  1. Location = The code for the branch the card is created at (frsn, fig,wdwd)

           2.  Enter the address (note the zip code this will be used in the bstat)

          3. Find and select the f + zip code in the drop sown menu of the Stat Class section.                   you can also manually enter f + zip code
           
             4.  Continue card creation with the normal procedures.

            If a P.O. Box is given make sure to also add their 
            resident address.  Use the resident address 
            zip code for the Bstat.

Note:  Patrons can have more than one bstat.  The WoW! team will be getting different/additional bstats soon so they can keep statistics specific to them.  Please do not delete bstats.
