    Desired Outcome Goal:
    Pull item information into holdings record export.

    Procedure:
    1. Using GUI or OPAC Search/Save to server or the ret-01 service ("Retrieve Catalog Records"), generate a file of bib-record keys.

    2. Run the manage-70 service ("Retrieve Record Keys ") to get a file of associated holdings records.

    3. Modify the ./xxx01/tab/expand_doc_bib_z30 file to include a line for the holdings system number in subfield $x:
    # z30-hol-doc-number x zero X

    4. Use expand_doc_bib_z30 to create z30-1 and z30-2 fields for monograph and/or serials item data, with the holdings system number (z30_hol_doc_number) for the bib record file from step 1. This yields a file of associated item information for the bibs that also contains the associated holdings number.

    5. Use regex or similar product to place the holdings system number at the beginning of the z30-x fields. (This allows the concatenation of this file with the file of holdings records and sorting by system number.)

    Additional Information

    For this project, separate holdings records were needed; using bib records with holdings data incorporated (via expand_doc_bib_hol) was not an option, but may be an option in other cases.

    See also Article 000002812 ("Expanding holdings ID from z30_hol_doc_number_x").
