That's a known "problem". The MARC21 parameter are filled, but some "links"
or "mapping" are NOT done at the moment.<br>
And i'm not a librarian neither a MARC21 user and can't do them.<br>
The 1st person that does them can send me the right structure and it will
be included in koha 1.9.1<br>
<br>
How to solve this : <br>
In koha, you have 2 parallel "databases". The 1st being the marc one, the
second being the non-marc.<br>
To be able to manage any flavour of MARC, we have a "generic" MARC structure.
That stores juste fields-subfields and values.<br>
But the MARC-DB don't know what MEAN the fields-subfields.<br>
So you must "link" some marc subfields to "meaningful" fields from the non-MARC
DB to ensure a good behaviour of koha.<br>
<br>
itemnum : it's a field in items table. It must be mapped to a MARC21 subfield
(probably in 995 : the items subfield) and is managed internaly, so MUST
be invisible (tab -1)<br>
homebranch and holdingbranch are in biblioitems table and must be mapped
to something in MARC21 too.<br>
To map a field : <br>
* koha<br>
* Parameters<br>
* MARC tag structure and Links koha - MARC-DB<br>
<br>
When it's done "Checks MARC" will check your config and report problem.<br>
