Importing and saving records, field not filled
I’m cataloging serials by running a Z39.50 search. The import of records is successful; however Koha doesn’t allow to save the records because the subfield a Extent (v.:) in tab 3 (physical description) is not filled. I wonder what’s the best way to solve this? Best regards, Essi -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Importing-and-saving-records%2C-field-not-filled-tp274...

If you don't want to have the 300$a be a required field when you catalog, you can go to the MARC frameworks editor under Administration and mark that subfield as optional. Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton gmcharlt@gmail.com
Hi, thank you for your answer. Interesting that the default setting for this subfield is "mandatory" in the serials framework. Regards, Essi Galen Charlton-2 wrote:

Yes, that's questionable. It makes sense for the 300$a to be mandatory for books, but not for serials. Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton gmcharlt@gmail.com
