    Description:
    We would like to add call number to the linkable Location field in Web OPAC. We expand field 852 from the Holding records, but cannot achieve the desired display. The call number is added to the 852 location, but is not clickable. The expanded fields LOC or PST do not display all locations in the union view. We are a union view library.

    Resolution:
    1) In tab_expand, set the PRE-MERGE, WEB-FULL and WEB-BRIEF routines as follows:

    PRE-MERGE expand_doc_bib_loc_usm

    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_disp
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_1_a
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_1_b
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_1_c
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_sort_loc_b
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_2_a
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_3_a
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_4_a
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_bib_loc_cleanup
    WEB-FULL expand_doc_merge_union

    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_disp
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_1_b
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_1_b2
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_1_c
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_sort_loc_b
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_2_a
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_3_a
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_4_a
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_bib_loc_cleanup
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_merge_union

    2) Set edit_doc_999.eng as follows:
    ## PST# L LOwned by Y L E W

    3) Set www_tab_short.eng as follows:
    7 L Location/Item Status 00 00 2000 L ## PST

    4) Set edit_field.eng to display the desired subfields for field PST, for example:
    1 # PST# L B
    2 4 ^ ^/
    2 5 ^ :
    2 h A ^
    2 i A ^

    5) Set tab_merge_union to contain the expanded PST field:
    !1 2 3 4
    !!-!-!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    90 1 Y #####
    90 1 N SID##
    90 1 N 852##
    90 1 N 856##
    90 1 N PST##

    90 2 Y SID##
    90 2 Y 852##
    90 2 Y 856##
    90 2 Y PST##

    Restart www server.
