- An edited version of this template with Harvard-specific examples is also available. Note that invoice lines created via this method DO NOT appear to automatically include the Reporting Code(s) from the POL. Make sure to include these on the template, if needed.
- Edit the template as needed, then paste the list of POLs and prices into it:
- Once it is ready and has been saved, upload to Alma. Note that while the invoice will appear via a search quickly, it may take some time for all the invoice lines to link and for the invoice to load completely. During this period, the invoice owner will appear to be Harvard University. If everything loaded properly, the invoice owner will change to the appropriate library once the process is finished.
