[Koha] Record matching for biblios without ISBN or ISSN

[Ian Walls]

Elaine,


In your matching rules, use the following settings:

Search index: Control-number
Score: 1000
Tag: 001
Subfields: [blank]
Offset: 0
Length: 0
Normalization Rule: [blank]

and that should allow you to match on the 001 field.
