    Problem Symptoms:
    The library uses OPAC via Link (OvL) in Primo.
    Clicking on the Brief Results > Locations tab, the first column on the left, should go to the Library's OPAC Locations list.
    It currently links to the Primo home search page.

    Cause:
    Different codes were used in the 2 locations required for configuring this link.
    *_holdings
    *_linktoholdings
    It is critical to use exactly the same code in both configuration locations.
    In the Primo Back Office
    * Advanced Configuration > All Mapping Tables > Sub System = Delivery > Table = Template, the code name was "yourlib_unicorn_holdings"
    * Ongoing Configuration Wizards > Pipe Configuration Wizard > Normalization Rules configuration > Links > Link to Holdings rule, the constant was "$$Tyourlib_unicorn_linktoholdings"

    Resolution:
    Step 1: Change the Template mapping table code to "yourlib_unicorn_linktoholdings"
    Step 2: Save and deploy the change

    Additional Information

    The standard linktoholdings template codes use different structure: linktoholdings, aleph_holdings, voyager_holdings, unicorn_holdings.
