Use i-WAT Tickets for Circulation

Let us explain how to use an existing i-WAT ticket using an example. Suppose Bob asked Cameron to give him her copy of a book.

• >>1. Bob sends a use message
• >>2. Cameron sends an accept message
• >>3. Alice sends an approve message

>>1. Bob sends a use message

Bob follows these steps.

1. Select Cameron on the Member List at the main window.
2. Select "Acquired" tab in the i-WAT book. Then select the ticket obtained from Alice.
3. Go to "i-WAT Ticket" menu -> "Use...".
   • An existing i-WAT ticket window appears.
   
4. Enter the following items on the window.

   [Item]

   • The reason to send the i-WAT ticket to the correspondent.

   [Payee]

   • Select the public key user ID of the payee from the list.
   • If you have selected the peer on the Member List at the main window, it is set automatically.

5. Click on "Use" button.
   • A GnuPG passphrase input window appears.
6. Enter the passphrase.

>>2. Cameron sends an accept message

An i-WAT message window appears on the desktop of Cameron's computer.

1. If you are ready to accept the ticket, click on "Accept" button.
   • A GnuPG passphrase window appears.
2. Enter the passphrase.

The accept message is sent to both Bob and Alice, to which Bob confirms.

>>3. Alice sends an approve message

An i-WAT message window appears on the desktop of Alice's computer.

1. Click on "Approve" button.
   • A GnuPG passphrase input window appears.
2. Enter the passphrase.

Another i-WAT message window appears on the desktops of both Cameron's and Bob's computers.

1. Click on "Confirm" button.

In Cameron's i-WAT book, the i-WAT ticket drawn by Alice becomes usable. In Bob's i-WAT book, it becomes used.
