Latest Update Info: ( Last Revised : July 24, 2008 )

***[The QDPortal Program]{.underline}*.** We're now using **version
1.1.4** of *QDPortal* with the latest **DOCLINE 3.4** (released in July,
2008). Everyone should now be using this version (check the Setup Screen
next to the Finished button in *QDPortal* to see if yours is up to
date).

(**Receipts and Status/Cancel** displays in **DOCLINE 3.4** won't be
saved in versions of *QDPortal* earlier than 1.1.4, so this a required
update.)

Plans are to integrate *QDPortal* into *QuickDOC*, as you may know,
within the next few months.

***[The QuickDOC Program]{.underline}***. The official *QuickDOC*
version is version 2.1.8. **Version 2.1.8** differs from 2.1.7 primarily
with the addition of the OCLC Import capability, although other, minor
fixes are included as well. Since version 2.1.7 will also work with
DOCLINE 3.4, there is no need for libraries not using OCLC to rush to
update, but be aware that any new installations will be made with
version 2.1.8. If you add a new machine, consequently, that machine will
be running 2.1.8 and you should upgrade any other machines from 2.1.7 to
2.1.8 at the same time. Changes from version 2.1.7 include:

1.  **OCLC Import Function**.

    a.  Using the end-of-month OCLC Reports, QuickDOC will import items
        from both the Lending and Borrowing Reports.

    b.  OCLC symbols added to Library records as they are encountered.

c\. Items paid via IFM are marked Paid at the time of import.

2\. As a preparation for providing access to more than one database from
within the *QuickDOC* program, the database LIBID and Location are now
listed in a file called **MyLibraries.txt** rather than hard-wired into
the Registry (since 2.1.4). While 2.1.8 will only recognize one database
here, for now, version 2.2 will give you a list of databases and LIBIDs
so that you can choose the one to log onto.

Many of the changes in 2.1.4-2.1.8 have been made in preparation for the
joining together of *QDPortal* and *QuickDOC*. Because these changes
aren't all complete and tested as yet, we'll still be using QDPortal
Version 1.1.4 (which also allows running QuickDOC on computers with no
C: drive\-\--a rarely used situation that we're basically against as
inefficient). Version 2.2 will be the one joining them together.

**Next step: Version 2.2**. Once QDPortal is integrated into QuickDOC, a
number of new capabilities will emerge. Because we'll have access to the
QuickDOC.MDB database while online, items saved will go right into the
database (instead of being saved temporarily and imported later). We can
call up full Patron or Library records when needed on DOCLINE; we can
import updated journal info on the fly, etc. It will be a true change of
paradigm. Target date is the end of the summer.
