How to bring item data into holdings records
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 20, 21, 22, 23
Desired Outcome Goal:
Creation of a file of holdings records with item barcodes, with the expand_doc_bib_z30 including the holdings number (in addition to the z30_barcode), so that it can be matched to the holdings file.
Procedure:
Add the following to the ./xxx01/tab/expand_doc_bib_z30 file:
Y z30-hol-doc-number x space N
Additional Information
The expand_doc_bib_z30 program reads the ./xxx01/tab/expand_doc_bib_z30 table to see what z30 columns should be expanded into what field bib "Z30" / $$x field/subfields.
Though the distributed ./usm01/tab/expand_doc_bib_z30 includes certain z30 columns, *any* z30 column can be specified in this table -- including z30-hol-doc-number-x. Just make certain that the subfield value chosen (in column 3) is not already used by some other (uncommented) z30 column.
