The Textbook Requisitions system can be adjusted in a variety of ways to meet the bookstore’s needs using the administrative parameters. The administrative parameters are located under the Admin tab in Textbook Requisitions. Please note that it is recommended that you allow administrative rights for only one or two people within the bookstore to prevent unexpected changes to the system functionality from occurring.

 To log into the Textbook Requisition system:

1.  Open an Internet browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) session and direct your browser to http://textreq.thecampushub.com/v3.0. Choose your bookstore from the drop-down menu and click the Next button. 

2. Enter your username and password and click the Login button. You should now be logged into the Textbook Requisition system (Fig. 1).
   Figure 1: Login Screen

   

After successfully logging in as an administrator, you will see several navigational tabs and a list of any requisitions created using your specific user account. If you click on the Admin navigational tab, you will see six administrative parameter options: Site Maintenance, Manage Terms, Manage Users, Manage Courses, Manager Courses, and Manage Locations.

Site Maintenance

 You have three options under Site Maintenance: Maintain Site Settings, Maintain Product Usage Options, and Maintain Site Appearance.

 Maintain Site Settings

 These site settings control the basic functionality of your Textbook Requisitions site. There are four different options to choose from when working with the site settings: General, Book, Requisition, and E-mail. The general settings allow you to set contact information for the bookstore and to turn Textbook Requisitions as a whole on or off. The book settings are directly related to books that will be added to requisitions. The requisition settings are directly related to the creation of requisitions. Finally, the e-mail settings are directly related to the use of e-mail within the Textbook Requisition system.

 To access the site settings:

1.  Log into the Textbook Requisition system. 

2. Click the Admin tab. 

3. Click the Site Maintenance link (Fig. 2).

   Figure 2: Site Maintenance Link

   

4. Click the Maintain Site Settings link.

5. Use the tabs directly above the settings (General, Book, Requisition, E-mail) to select the type of settings you wish to modify (Fig. 3).

Manage Terms

 Once you send your terms to the Textbook Requisitions system, you may choose to make those terms active and available for requisitioning, closed or historical. Historical terms may be archived for improved system performance.

 To manage current terms:

1.  Log into the Textbook Requisition system.

2. Click the Admin tab.

3. Click the Manage Terms link.

4. Click the second Manage Terms link (Fig. 11).

   Figure 11: Manage Terms

   Open: The term is active and available for requisitioning.
   Closed: The term is not available for requisitioning.
   Historical: The term history can be referenced when users are creating new requisitions. These same statuses exist under the Action header, with one additional status:
   Archive: If the term has a historical status, you may choose to archive it. Archiving historical terms allows Textbook Requisitions to run faster. Archived terms are still available for historical reference. However, once a term is archived, its status cannot be changed and the process cannot be undone, so you should only archive terms you are finished with. Once a term is archived, it is managed under Admin > Manage Terms > Manage Archived Terms.

If you wish to change the status of the term, click the “Activate” or “Deactivate” link and then click OK.
   Delete: If you wish to permanently delete the archived term, click the “Delete” link and then click OK. Once a term has been permanently deleted, the data cannot be retrieved.
