Hi Joseph, a MARC21 installation of Koha expects the item information in field 952 and the subfields as pre-defined in the Koha-to-MARC-Mappings. You could in theory reconfigure Koha, but it will give you a lot of headache, as you would also have to adjust all the Zebra indexes. I'd strongly recommend changing the data to match Koha's item definitions before importing instead. 952$aBranchcode 952$bBranchcode 952$pBarcode 952$yItemtype code ... More information about the item fields can be found in the manual. Hope this helps, Katrin Am 21.01.2016 um 17:24 schrieb Lamb Joseph:
I have uploaded an export of Destiny in my test Koha database. I cannot search for the bar code when checking out a book. The bar code information is in 852 $p. I can search and find the bar code using search catalog function. How do I map 852 field/P sub-field to Koha database to populate the bar code field? I have created a new framework for Books. I also created a Keyword to MARC mapping. I put in bar code to 852 sub-field P. After I import the MARC records from Destiny, Koha does not register an Item Type on the Holdings tab. So how do I created a book from the marc record? Not sure if I am heading in the right direction. Any advice is appreciated.
