    Description:
    In the past we found it necessary to provide information for the ABCLB sublibrary as well as the ABC50 sublibrary when we registered patrons and performed other patron functions. In particular, we got into the habit of assigning patron status and patron type values for the ABCB sublibrary, then getting defaults, and then updating the ABCLB sublibrary local patron information in order to assign an expiration date to the patron's privileges under the ABCLB sublibrary.

    Now when I look up any of our patrons I am finding that none of them have local patron information for the ABCLB sublibrary. Was this information somehow lost with one of our recent upgrades? Should we continue to enter and update information for the ABCLB sublibrary for our patrons?

    Resolution:
    It seems that you *do* have ABC50 z305 records for all the patrons:

    SQL> select count(*) from z303;
    **** Hit return to continue ****

    COUNT(*)
    ----------
    2688

    1 row selected.

    SQL> select count(*) from z305;
    **** Hit return to continue ****

    COUNT(*)
    ----------
    3059


    SQL> select substr (z305_rec_key,13,5), count(*) from z305 group by substr (z305_rec_key,13,5);
    **** Hit return to continue ****

    SUBSTR(Z305_REC COUNT(*)
    --------------- ----------
    ABC50 2674
    ABCLB 385


    There is no reason to have ABCLB sublibrary Z305s. ABC50 Z305s are enough.
