Thanks a lot,<br><br>I have a couple of questions:<br>How is displayed in OPAC a multivolume book that was cataloged this way?<br>Is it possible to use the plugin <a href="http://unimarc_field_4xx.pl">unimarc_field_4xx.pl</a> 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?<br>

</div></div>Koha in the stable version (3.2.3 now) has a very basic support for this<br>
catalouging workflow.<br>
You need to:<br>
a)Use the standard subfield tecnique (no embedded fields)<br>
b)Insert the subfields $t [title] and $0 [id of record].<br>
<br>
Amit Gupta, Savitra Sirohi and I we are working os support of<br>
a tool to make easy the analytical records linking (the reverse of your<br>
situation, a father/host record with items, sons without items).<br>
<br>
Jared Camins amd Katrin Fisher are working on an other solution for<br>
linking.<br>
<br>
So the summary:<br>
a)Now you need to do all by hand and probably the support is not perfect.<br>
b)We are working on a better solution.<br>
