[Koha] multivolumepart?

[Marius Stoica]

Thanks a lot,

I have a couple of questions:
How is displayed in OPAC a multivolume book that was cataloged this way?
Is it possible to use the plugin unimarc_field_4xx.pl to automatically
search and insert the title and the record id instead of doing this
manually? Is this working with version 3.02.00.007?

With appreciation,
Marius Stoica
