    Question

    When searching in a logical base based on a specific sub-library code ADAM objects in this sub-library are not found when there is not also an item record for this sub-library. Search should also point to a record when there is only an ADAM object for a specific sub-library. How to achieve?

    Answer


    For getting information out of the object record expanded into the bibliographic record do the following changes:

    xxx01/tab/tab_expand [Add a line]
    WORD      expand_doc_bib_z403

    xxx01/tab/expand_doc_bib_z403 [New table]
    ! 2 3 4 5
    !-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!-!!!!!!!!!!-!
    # z403-title                          y space      X
    # z403-sub-library                    b space      N
    # Z403-usage-type                     t space      N


    With the above settings a field Z403 will be expanded into the BIB record which holds the object title, sub-library and usage-type and can be used for WORD indexing. In Z403$$b the sub-library code can be found. A record with this expand looks like this:

    Reading doc : 000123456
    ...
    Z403 L $$y33.14. Petersen, Poul: Ein føroysk bygd$$bFFFLB$$tVIEW

    Adding Z403$$b into tab11_word will create an index entry with the relevant sub-library code in wfi index (so that these records will be found in logical base ffflb):

    xxx01/tab/tab11_word
    Z403#                    b                    31     WFI

     

    xxx01/tab/tab00.lng

    H WFI   W-028   31 00       01       Filial         

    After modifying the table settings ...
    - Restart the PC server
    - Restart ue_01 daemon

    If re-indexing of all older records is necessary you may create a list of all records having objects (using SQL) and use this list as input for "Update Indexes for Selected Records (manage-40)".  This input needs to be in "p_ret_01 format".  See the article "

    Appending library to each line in file of record numbers (make "p_ret_01 format" " in this regard.
