Thank you. How can I navigate to the screen where I can change this, or what is the relative URL? Thanks, Br. C.S. Hayward. ------- Original Message ------- On Thursday, July 14th, 2022 at 12:58 PM, Himanshu Aggarwal <rtr.himanshu@gmail.com> wrote:

You can change from Mandatory to Important wherein even if one does not choose it the record can still be saved.

I am interested in making MARC field tag 040 subfield c optional.

Two basic questions:

1: Is this something that would make you wince?

2: How can I go about doing that?

Hi,

I am not a cataloger, so I am not going to judge :)

* Go to Administration > Bibliographic MARC frameworks

* Choose MARC structure for the framework you want to update

* Search for the field and 'Edit subfields'

* Remove the mandatory flag from the subfield

Hope this helps,

Katrin

I assume you remove the "mandatory" flag for *all* subfields and then the field itself is not mandatory.

Followup question: I have made 040 c an optional field. However, 040 is still a required field in that one of its subfields is required to be filled. How can I change things so that 040 itself is not required?

Thanks, Br. C.S. Hayward.
