    Description

    The "Originating System" field in Analytics is often displaying "Unknown" although I see an external resource as the originating system in Alma UI.

    Resolution

    It is needed to populate the "Originating Systems for MD Records", at "Configuration Menu > Resources > Record Import".

    The "code" must appear exactly as the resource appears in "External Search Resources" at "Configuration Menu > Resources > Search Configuration > External Search Resources. The description may be free text.

    Analytics will be updated after the next nightly refresh.

     

    Please see detailed documentation here.
