    Why is the material type in field TYP set to “Manuscripts”.

    Answer

    Material type “Manuscripts” is created according to configuration of field TYP in table ./xxx01/tab/tab_type_config.lng. It is created when field LDR has character “b” or “t” on position 06 of the field:

    ./xxx01/tab/tab_type_config.lng:
