Hi Nicole, Savitra, From what I have discovered about the search indexing there are two configuration files that have an impact on this. The actual term that you search for will be defined in "ccl.properties" and the file "record.abs" tells the zebra indexing what data to extract from the MARC data. So conceptually record.abs tells zebra how to fill the search index and ccl.properties tells you what you can search for. Ideally both files should tell a similar story but it is not always so. If a field is in record.abs but not in ccl.properties it will be in the search index files but you will not be able to search on it, and conversely if it is in ccl.properties but not in record.abs you will be able to search on it but there will be no data indexed. I have used "Control-number" in record matching rules which maps to the 001 MARC tag successfully. Some searchable tags can be called a nuber of different things - for instance you can search for au, aut or Author all of which equate to author name. The following is from delivered ccl.properties: #Author-name 1003 A personal or corporate author, 100, 110, 111, 400 # or a conference or meeting 410, 411, 700, 710, # name. (No subject name 711, 800, 810, 811 # headings are included.) Author 1=1003 s=pw au Author aut 1=1003 So if you are setting up a Record Matching Rule and you want to see if the index you choose works then you can search in the simple search box for (eg): Control-number="123456" or Control-number:123456 or similar. If it does not work for data you know to be there then check that record.abs puts the data into the search index and ccl.properties enables you to search on it. I have not used a Normalization rule - sorry. I hope this is helpful. Ian On 09/08/2010 13:10, Nicole Engard wrote:
Thanks for this! What about the normalization rule?
Thanks again, Nicole

Folks, search indexes are in Zebra's records.abs file. For instance, for biblionumber (999$c), you should see the label Local-number. This is the search index.
