This SQL can be used in the Item Find Tool to help you find high priced items that could throw off the **You Saved** amounts in patron accounts. A common mistake is when an ISBN number or Item barcode gets scanned into the price field. Because Polaris does not enforce a maximum price that data is accepted and used when that item circulates.

If you’d like to [see a maximum price setting added to Polaris, consider voting for that feature](https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951742-ils-polaris/suggestions/46833076-set-a-maximum-allowed-price-for-items).

```auto
SELECT ird.ItemRecordID
FROM Polaris.Polaris.ItemRecordDetails ird
JOIN Polaris.Polaris.CircItemRecords cir ON ird.ItemRecordID = cir.ItemRecordID
JOIN Polaris.Polaris.Organizations o ON cir.AssignedBranchID = o.OrganizationID
WHERE ird.Price > 500 --adjust dollar amount as needed
  AND cir.NonCirculating = 0 --only look for CIRCULATING items, withOUT the non-circulating checkmark
  AND cir.RecordStatusID <> 4 --exclude item records with a deleted record status
  AND cir.ItemStatusID NOT IN (3, 11, 13, 17) --exclude Out-ILL, Withdrawn, On-Order, Returned-ILL
  --AND cir.MaterialTypeID NOT IN (); --uncomment and add a commas separated list of material type ids you might want to exclude, like reference, ebooks, etc.

```

You could also build up a Power Search that could accomplish something similar:
