Begriff oder Akronym	Term or Acronym	Erläuterung
Buchhaltungscode	Accounting code	A reference number used to identify a vendor in an external payment system.
Erwerbungsteam	Acquisition unit	An additional layer you can add to acquisitions records that restricts a user’s ability to interact with those records unless they have been assigned to that unit. For example, you may create acquisition units to represent the different libraries within your library system. Units are defined and determined by your library in the Settings app.
	Allocated fund	A fund that has been assigned a monetary value for the fiscal year and therefore has money to spend.
	Analytic	An analytic is a portion of a work (like a volume in a series) that can be described separately from the work itself. Analytics can be created for articles in a journal, volumes of a monograph, or issues of a serial
Verfügbarkeit	Availability	The status of an item in terms of circulation (for example, available; recently returned). In FOLIO, “Item Status” displays availability.
	Batch group	Invoices grouped together for export to an external accounts payable system. Invoices from the same library are generally processed together, as determined by the batch group assignment on each invoice.
	Bound-with	Multiple, separate bibliographic titles that are bound together in a single volume, most frequently by a former owner but also sometimes by a publisher and for other reasons.
Budget	Budget	A finance record that describes the amount of money available for a fiscal year within a fund that includes a definition of the allowed expenditure percentage and allowed encumbrance percentage. Transfers and allocations transactions are performed against a budget. Expense classes can be assigned to a budget.
Bug	Bug	An error, fault or flaw in a software system.
	Campus	The second level of the four level location structure (Institution -> Campus -> Library -> Location). The structure is hierarchical - a campus must be linked to one institution, and a library must be linked to one campus.
	Child record	Associated with linking bound-withs, which allows for “links” between separate bibliographic records and/or a bibliographic record and items belonging to another bibliographic record. Child records are those associated bibliographic records.
CQL	CQL	Contextual Query Language. A formal language for representing queries to Information Retrieval systems such as web indexes, bibliographic catalogues and museum collection information.
	CRUD	Create, Read, Update, Delete. The basic actions that can be taken on a record in a software system.

	Effective call number (item), eye readable	A way of presenting the call number that may be easier for a human being to read.
	Effective call number (item), normalized	A standardized way of presenting the call number that may be harder for a human being to read, but easier for a machine to process.
	Expense class	A fiscal entity used to track transactions against a specific purpose or function within a Fund.
	Item effective location	FOLIO has permanent and temporary location fields on the Holdings and Items records. There is built-in logic for FOLIO to compute the item’s “effective location” based on what values are set.
eHoldings	eHoldings	Contains information such as the resource’s URL, call number, etc to enable staff to locate and manage library electronic holdings.
	Encumbrance	An amount of money that the library commits to pay to a vendor from a fund budget for ordered materials that will be invoiced in the future.

LDP	LDP	Library Data Platform. A project that develops an open-source analytics platform (https://github.com/library-data-platform) which can be utilized by FOLIO reporting (https://github.com/folio-org/folio-analytics) for statistical and operational analytics. The term, “LDP,” is sometimes also used as a shorthand for a specific component of the platform, such as the LDP database or the LDP query builder app which runs in FOLIO.

Locations are used in functionality including item routing, fees and fines, and remote storage configuration. Items may also have an “effective location” value that is used in circulation.
	Long-term loan	A loan with a loan period interval specified in days, weeks, or months, or determined by a fixed due date. A long-term loan is always due at 11:59 PM on its due date.

	MM	Metadata Management. MM is used within the FOLIO community to describe essential bibliographic management functions, such as creating, editing, suppressing, deleting, importing, exporting, replacing, overlaying, and reporting.
	Mode of issuance	The abstract form of the resource (eg., monograph, subunit).
	Net transfers	Money transferred between funds during a fiscal year.
Okapi	Okapi	Okapi is the FOLIO-provided gateway system for managing apps and communication between system modules. System administrators and hosting providers use Okapi as an essential tool to manage FOLIO performance, upgrade or remove modules, and maintain available permissions. In contrast, library staff generally only use Okapi when they need to query FOLIO APIs for information. See https://github.com/folio-org/okapi/blob/master/doc/guide.md for more detailed technical documentation.
	Order	A purchase order featuring a list of titles or packages (physical or electronic) being ordered by a library from a vendor.
	Organization	Any institution with whom your library interacts (this may or may not be an institution from whom you purchase materials).
	Package (in Orders)	A purchase order that represents the acquisition of multiple titles.
	Parent record	The main link in a bound-with situation: It will have an item record (and thus barcode) that all other bibliographic records associated with a given bound-with volume can link to. Child records are those associated bibliographic records. Child records will have LKR fields in the bibliographic record that include the ADM number of the parent record and “Enum. Level.1” information found in the parent record’s item record. Doing this allows all item record information in the parent record to display in the child record, so the same barcode, sublibrary, collection, description, call number, etc. will show up for all titles in a bound-with.
	Patron blocks	Optional limits that libraries can impose on patron circulation privileges, removing privileges when the limits are exceeded. For example, a library can say that if a patron has five lost items, they can no longer borrow books until that number is reduced to four lost items or fewer.

	Resource type	Defined by RDA vocabulary list, rdacontent.
	RM	Resource Management. RM is used within the FOLIO community to describe a category of acquisitions functions which include Finance/Budgets, Organizations/Vendors, Orders, Invoices, and Electronic Resource Management.
	Service point	A service point in FOLIO is a setting that libraries configure to support circulation functions. Every FOLIO item must have a location, and every location must have an attached service point. You must set up at least one service point to be able to check items in and out; allow patrons to request items; charge and collect fines; and put items in transit between locations at your library.
	Shelving lag time	Locally determined time-frame between the return of material and the time it should be reshelved. This functionality is not yet in place for FOLIO.
	Short-term loan	A loan with a loan period specified in minutes or hours. All short-term loan notices are delivered in real time.

Mandant	Tenant	A client in FOLIO whose data are stored separately and are accessible and visible separately from other clients. FOLIO installations may be “single-tenant” or “multi-tenant” depending on how their hosting environment is configured. A client is typically a library or a branch library. Each tenant uses its own set of deployed modules.
	Token	A value in a notice used to dynamically fill content in a notice when it is sent. For example, if a notice template includes the token {{item.title}}, when the notice is generated, {{item.title}} will be replaced by the title of the item to which the notice is referring.
