Availability for Horizon WS users

If you use Horizon Web Services, you can configure Portfolio to display availability information in search results and detail displays.

With this feature enabled for a search source site, the software will automatically add a Status column to the detail display. The Status column either displays the current location of an item or indicates that the item is currently checked out.
