    Suppressing xxx30 Course doc record not working correctly in v19 OPAC

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 19.01

    Description:
    When I use the new Suppress button in version 19 course reserves, it does not suppress the bib record from displaying. Instead, both the connection and the bib record display.

    What do I need to set up so that a bib record will be suppressed from display in the course reserves OPAC?

    Resolution:
    The problem was that the word being generated by tab11_word and tab_word_breaking for the STA $$asuppressed field was not "suppressed" but rather "asuppressed".

    This is because the tab11_word specified a word-breaking routine of 03 and tab_word_breaking routine 03 lacks the del_subfield routine.

    util f/1/28 showed this:

    STA $$aSUPPRESSED
    Load: /utf/utf_files/exlibris/aleph/prod/abc/abc30/tab/tab_word_breaking
    Load: /exlibris/aleph/prod/alephe/unicode/tab_character_conversion_line
    Load: /exlibris/aleph/prod/alephe/unicode/unicode_to_word_gen
    000002924 0001 0001 asuppressed
    000002924 0001 0013 asuppressed

    After changing tab11_word column 6 to "01", we see this:

    STA $$aSUPPRESSED
    Load: /utf/utf_files/exlibris/aleph/prod/abc/abc30/tab/tab_word_breaking
    Load: /exlibris/aleph/prod/alephe/unicode/unicode_case
    Load: /exlibris/aleph/prod/alephe/unicode/tab_character_conversion_line
    Load: /exlibris/aleph/prod/alephe/unicode/unicode_to_word_gen
    000002924 0001 0001 suppressed
    000002924 0001 0013 suppressed

    I see that the usm30 tab11_word, from which your line was no doubt copied, also has this defect. We have requested that the distributed v19 and v20 usm30 tab11_word tables have this corrected.
