I don't believe that is how it is meant to work. Homebranch is meant to be the library that owns a given item, whereas holdingbranch is meant to be the library that is currently in possession of an item. Usually they will both be the same branch code unless an item is transferred to another library in your system for some reason. Are you aware of the "Shelving Location" feature? It you need to levels, you could go with Collection Code / Shelving Location.

I use homebranch for the physical address where the book is located and then the holding branch for a shelving location as I have a couple of different places where materials are shelved: location and sublocation.
Is there a better way to delineate where books are shelved?
