Restore ability to attach "Access Service - Subscription" POL type to inventory
We have several resources with POL types of "Access Service -Subscription", but we no longer have the ability to attach them to the relevant electronic collection or portfolio. For example, our British Periodicals electronic collection had the access service POL attached in March 2017, but we're unable to attach the same POL type to our Times Literary Supplement historical archive collection as anything other than an Additional POL. We also have over 200 active Kanopy streaming video POLs that we're unable to attach to the portfolio.
Ex Libris has advised that this is because Access Service – Subscription is an order without inventory and so it can not be linked to any inventory. However, the ability to attach these POLs was once possible and is necessary to enable accurate cost per use analytics.
