Hi René,
I'm not sure if I completely understand your post, but you want to import 1 specific record using the Z39.50 application in the cataloging section, right? Normally, when you get a hit (through ISBN or whatever) you can import the data by clicking 'Import'. This will bring you to the 'Add MARC record'-editor, with most fields filled in. There you can add, delete, change your data the way you like it. On the upper left side you'll have the option to 'Save' the bibliographic record. That way the record will be saved and will be visible in your OPAC.
AFAIK, no "reservoir" is needed, nor the 'Manage staged records' tool.
Note: this is the way to work to import 1 record at a time. For batch imports, that's another question 😊
Thanks a lot for your reply. What you describe is what I expected. However, in my case the imported records end up in the 'reservoir' and are not visible in the OPAC. I can only find them in the 'Cataloging' section. So it's not a question of the 'reservoir' being needed or not, it's there whether I want it or not, and I can't figure out how to get the imported records from the 'reservoir' (which is a kind of staging area, it seems) to the OPAC.
