    BATCH-UPD" cataloger level is too high -- where is this set?

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 16.02

    Description:
    I've been receiving complaints that sites can not update cataloging records because a higher level cataloger touched the record. When I check the record, I see that BATCH-UPD has a high cataloger level.

    I suspect one of two things -- BATCH-UPD has a cataloging level being set somewhere, but where? (could you point me to the right table)
    OR
    BATCH-UPD takes it's cataloging level from the person who is running the cataloging process. If this is true, can you tell me how I may instruct folks to run batch processing so that someone with a 90 level does not cut off someone from a 50 level from doing catalog maintenance on the batch-updated record?

    Resolution:
    [Note: "BATCH-UPD" is either ue_01 (indexing daemon) or p_manage_21 (global change).]

    In version 16.02-up, the Cataloger level of a BATCH-UPD CAT record is coming from the Cataloger level of the last preceding *actual* cataloger -- which is as it should be: these processes should not and do not change the Cataloger level.
