rep_change 1426 and X-service bor-info

• Article Type: General
• Product: Aleph
• Product Version: 16.02

Description:
The X-Service 'bor-info' has been enhanced: additional parameters can be used to filter the information.
One of these parameters is: hold
Y - Default. Retrieve full information on holds including item and brief title information.
N - Do not retrieve holds at all.
P - Retrieve item short bibliographic info (Z13).

In all options except 'N' 3 tags have been added: <pickup-location>, <last-interest-date> and <request-status>.

However, we see that these fields only appear when the "P" option is used.
Why?

Resolution:
The three fields-in-question appear for the 'hold=P' option, in addition to the z13 data.
For the 'hold=Y' these three fields are in the z37, therefore they are not duplicated and are not displayed separately.
