Description:
During upload with manage-18 we want all of our records to get a 001 field with the system number (as happens now when we save a new record in GUI). How can we do this?

Resolution:
When you save a record the record, it gets the system number in 001 because when a record is saved in cataloging module a fix routine called "INS2" is run. This is explained in the tab_fix table header: INS2 is run automatically when a record is updated in the Catalog GUI. The INS2 routine contains the procedure "fix_doc_001". This procedure adds a 001 field to record with system number.
Thus you could run the INS2 procedure when uploading. But, it would be a better idea to make a separate tab_fix routine containing only the procedure
fix_doc_001, so that other fix procedures (which may not be desired) will be performed. Then run this new procedure during upload.
We have done this for you by adding a fix routine called "SYSNO" to $data_tab/tab_fix: SYSNO fix_doc_001
