Predicting New Issues

• From the record summary for the title, select Serials » Manage subscriptions
• Select Manage Issues

• Select Predict New Issues

• The following interface will display with data reflecting the prediction pattern for the subscription:

• The publication date should represent the next expected issue based on the issues already predicted.
• If the prediction pattern includes enumerations, enter the next number in the sequence
• Enter the number of issues to predict
• Click to Save

• The new issues will be added to the list of issues already predicted

Alternatively, you may select only the next expected issue as follows:

• From the Record Summary for the title, select Serials » Manage subscriptions
• Select Manage Issues
• Select the last issue on the list (be sure you are displaying all issues)
• From the Actions menu, select “Add Following Issue”

• The following interface will display with data reflecting the prediction pattern for the subscription:

• The publication date should represent the next expected issue based on the issues already predicted.
• If the prediction pattern includes enumerations, enter the next number in the sequence
• Click to Save

It is also possible to add a “special” issue in this manner. In this case, after selecting Manage Issues:

• Select the last issue on the list (be sure you are displaying all issues)
• From the Actions menu, select “Add Following Issue”
• From the interface, check the box for “Ad hoc issue”
• Enter the date for the issue
• Enter a label for the issue
• If applicable, change the issue type (e.g. supplement)
• Click to save

The new issue will display in the correct row in the sequence of issues.
