    Question

    How to create a 'Physical Titles' itemized set using a list of MMS IDs?

    Answer

    1. Open 'Design Analytics' (Analytics > Analytics > Design Analytics)
    2. New > Analysis
    3. Select Subject Area > Physical Items
    4. From 'Bibliographic Details' folder, add 'MMS Id' to 'Selected Columns'
    5. From 'Physical Item Details', add 'IEP' to 'Selected Columns'
    6. In 'Selected Columns', add filter for 'MMS Id'
    7. Format the 'MMS Id' filter and click 'OK'. The filter should be formatted according to the example below:
      • Column: MMS Id
      • Operator: is equal to / is in
      • Value: Paste your list of MMS Ids into the column filter as described step-by-step here
    8. In 'Selected Columns', edit the Column Formula for 'IEP'
    9. Check the box for 'Custom Headings' and change the Column Heading to 'PID'
    10. Save the Analysis
    11. The Analysis can now be used to create a 'Physical Titles' itemized set

    This method will only include MMS IDs that have attached holdings records. This method will not add bibliographic records that lack physical holdings.
