    2 c A ,^
    2 d A ,^
    2 b ^

    Additional Information

    Please note that a new Z13 record is only created when a record is re-indexed. So after configuration modification and PC server restart you should
    - add a new record or save an existing one on server
    or
    - recreate Z13 records by running Update Short Bibliographic Records (manage-07)

    Example is from MAB environment
