<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The concatenation as suggested by you works while importing data into Koha and it generates only one item. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>In the initial marc file there are different entries for 952 sub fields. I edited the marc file using marc editor and concatenated the 952 subfields as one line 952$a[Value]$b[Value]$c[Value]$p... </div>
<div>It is ok to do for one record. But how to do it for multiple records. I meant how to cancatenate 952 subrecords for multiple records in a marc file. The data will not be the same for all items. Can you please suggest?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>

each bib. Instead, arrange a single 952 like this:<br>952$a[Value]$b[Value]$c[Value]$p... and so on. (Don't put brackets []<br>in your data: replace [Value] in each sub-field with the appropriate value.)<br><br>I hope that helps,<br>
