    Description 

    After updating and saving a holding record, LRD pos 5 remains 'n' for NEW instead of changing to 'u' for UPDATED

    Resolution 

    There is no automatic update of the holding record field LDR pos 5. It can be updated manually, or a normalization rule can be used so that when a holding is re-saved the LDR is updated. 

    See our Normalization Rule documentation here

    Example syntax:

    replaceControlContents "<tag>.{<position>,<length>}. 
    <value>" with "<new value>" 
    Example: replaceControlContents "LDR.{5,1}.n" with "u"
