SLIM Acquisition system supports the entire range of activities from the time someone makes a proposal to acquire an item, until it is finally paid for and accessioned. 

Acquisition system covers:

 • Proposal for acquisition  • Inquiry to book sellers/publishers
 • Purchase orders (foreign / local)  • Books on approval memos
 • Purchase bills  • Payment details of purchase bills
 • Credit notes  • Detailed information about vendors
 • Multiple currencies and conversion rates  
 
 

 

 
 

 

The data on documents is automatically picked up for generating letters. These can be simply printed, signed and posted. Associated payments information is maintained. Purchase follow-ups are made easy with:

Purchase order status report Purchase order follow up letters
Payment advises Entries in accession register are generated automatically

The items under acquisition can be kept in the catalogue and can be made visible through OPAC and WebOPAC searches. Theses items are grouped by proposers, subjects, recipients, etc. and can be retrieved in many ways:

 • Those on requests, orders, bills or approval memos
 • Those awaiting approval
 • Those received on donation or exchange basis
