Add library code to Resource Sharing Shipping Slip Letter
With Rapido, our smaller libraries are receiving more courier requests from all over the country, and they don't have all of these library codes memorized. The library codes are not available on the Resource Sharing Shipping Slip Letter, but are used by our courier service provider as an identifier for shipping to correctly route the documents. Currently, the code must be looked up by hand if you do not know it. Therefore, we would like to print the library codes on the Resource Sharing Shipping Slip Letter. However, this field is not included in the letter data (XML/XSL). We ask that this field be made available in the letter templates. It would greatly facilitate the work of our colleagues if this does not have to be looked up by hand.

The partner code and name are found on both the shipping and the return letter, see also May 20203 release note - https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Release_Notes/2023/Alma_2023_Release_Notes?mon=202305BASE

Dear Moshe,
in our case, the XML for both RS Return and Shipping slip contain the node /notification_data/partner_code. However, it is always filled in with the same value as the node /notification_data/partner_name. The library code is nowhere to be found. -
By 'library code', do you mean the partner code of the borrowing (for Shipping Slip) and lending (for Return Letter) partner ? These code are found on the letter XML.

The library code should be available also on the Resource Sharing Return Letter. It is and must stay available for the Transit Letter.
