[Koha] Technical help with Frameworks

[Alexander Tim]

Not sure if this is the correct list to email but if not hoping someone can send me in the right direction!

So, I am not a Librarian but work as a sys admin for my company.  We have a small Company Library that is used to publish various technical publications for our users to look through.  We are looking to move to Koha but I find I am struggling with the initial steps of trimming down the MARC Framework.  The list of fields I have been passed by our Librarian is for only 18 or so fields.  I am therefore finding cutting down the default framework very laborious.  I have looked to Import a cut down version of the framework, from an amended export to CSV, but this fails with "Error Importing the Framework".  I was then hoping that there is something on the SQL side I could do to amend the framework but this has not exactly yielded any useful results.  Is there anywhere I can check for an error on the framework import?  If not is there any guidance on cutting a framework down to just the required fields?

I am also concerned that not every field we have in the proposed framework would have a corresponding Koha to MARC mapping.  Would this be required or are these there for simplicity rather than a necessity?

Regards

Tim
