Advanced Generic Vendor Records Loader (file-90): Fix Routine during Merge
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20
Problem Symptoms:
For new records loaded by Advanced Generic Vendor Records Loader (file-90), the Fix Routine works OK.
When records merge during the load, the fix routine is not applied.
Cause:
Resolution:
Fix Routine entered as parameter is not applied to the database record when records merge.
Use Fix Routine FIL90, special default fix routine for Advanced Generic Vendor Records Loader (file-90), to fix BIB records before the load.
Additional Information
The Fix Routine entered as parameter to the Advanced Generic Vendor Records Loader (file-90) is applied to the records after records are loaded.
To fix loading records *before* the load, (for example, in order to add field 049), set up fix routine FIL90 in ./xxx01/tab/tab_fix.
Do not set up fix_doc_001 in FIL90. In order to add field 001 with record's system number, use fix_doc_001 with the Fix Routine selected as service's parameter.
See KB 16384-43938 "Which services create field 001 with Aleph system number during BIB load?"
