    Conditional Display of Fields in GUI and Printouts (for RDA Field 264)

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph

    Desired Outcome Goal:
    Adjust full display formats in Aleph, so that field 260 is only displayed if there is no 264 field?

    Procedure:
    [1] xxx01/tab/pc_tab_short.lng [add 264 to the line before 260]
    !1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
    !!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!-!!!!!!-!!!!!!-!!!!!!-!!!!!!-!!!!!!-!!!-!!-!!!-!!!-!!!-!!!
    00 År 5 264#c 260##c 015 03 C03

    [2] xxx01/tab/www_tab_short.lng [add 264 to the line before 260]
    ! 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
    !-!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!!!!!!!!!!!!-!!-!!-!!!!-!-!-!!!!!!!!!!-!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!
    4 L År 01---D02---A 00 00 0100 S c ## 264## 260#1 260

    [3] xxx01/tab/tab_expand [new lines added]
    WEB-FULL fix_doc_do_file_08 264_fix
    GUI-DOC-D fix_doc_do_file_08 264_fix

    [4] xxx01/tab/import/264_fix [new file containing the fix]
    ! 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
    !-!!!!!-!!-!-!!!-!!!-!!!!!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    1 264## COND-LOAD-VAL-FIELD N
    1 260## DELETE-FIELD
    For the GUI and OPAC full format display, this fix deletes field 260 from the display when field 264 is available.

    [5] Web and PC server must be restarted after these changes.

    Additional Information

    In accordance with RDA, more and more records use the MARC field 264 (for Production etc.) instead of 260 for Imprint.
