We don't use ACQ, but we do use the "hide in OPAC" feature for catalogue records in process or under review. 942 subfield n in MARC 21. Is that field available for acquisition records? You need to be sure it's enabled in the global preferences, and you have one item hidden. The records are completely searchable in the staff interface, but are ignored in the OPAC searches.

Hi to all,
working with ACQ, the bibliographic record is creates when I place the order in the basket.
In fact I want that patrons don't see the new bibliographic record in the Opac until the copy is arrived and I have finished to catalogue it.
I think that I can setup tag 942 in ACQ framework with a specific string like 'ON_ORDER' and I insert the limit 'NOT ON_ORDER' to every search with an Apache enviroment variable.
During catalog I will change the 942 to the specif material (Book, Serial, etc.).
Do you have test a similiar trick ? If you use ACQ, do you show biblio to users before full cataloging them ?
