[ILL-L] Quick Clarification - IFM Charges and OCLC Status

[MARINGER Cassie]

An IFM charge is incurred when the item is updated to 'received' by the
borrower.
 
A request can be deleted from 'shipped' status without a 'received'
update. The lender can update it to 'recalled' and then 'complete'.
This would delete the request without the IFM charge going through.

	Could someone on this wonderful list please refresh my memory? 

	 

	An IFM charge is posted when:

	1.       An item is updated to "Shipped" by the lender

	2.       An item is updated to "Received" by the borrower

	 

	Reason for the question - a lender says "Yes" by accident - but
once an item is Shipped in OCLC, you must (unless someone knows a trick
and would like to share) receive the request before you can delete it.
Thanks for the assistance. 

	 

	Regards,
