Dear Jos

We faced this problem too and we fixed it..

You have to create one 952 filed for every single item in the same record...
and make sure that at least these sub-field are filled, If the vendor has no
the info.. just write the most convenient for you..

=952 $a SEDE $b SUBSEDE $o SIGNATURA $p INVENTARIO $y TIPOITEM

If you face any problem we can provide you wish a sample mrc file that it
works.... you will just need to compare with yours and enjoy the system

Dear all

We have faced the same problem..... the issue is that we have imported
propertly
