S.Anand,


Bob's right, you should use Koha 3.6, or at the very least Koha 3.4.5.  These versions separate the items from the biblios, you could migrate the values from the Excel document right into the items table in the Koha database, without needing to muck about with the 952 field.  You'd just need to know the biblionumber and biblioitemnumber (should always be the same value) of each title you want to connect the items to.

Also, you are implementing a very old version of Koha.  The current version is 3.06.00.  I hope you are getting Koha from the right place: http://koha-community.org

Dear all,

I am trying to migrate data which is in Excel file to Koha using MarcEdit.  When I convert Excel to MRK file, the data at Tag 952subfileds (952a, b, g, o, p, etc.)  is appearing on separate lines.  An example of which is given below:

=952  \\$aAG
=952  \\$bAG
=952  \\$g695
=952  \\$o420 TON
=952  \\$pGN 1
=952  \\$yBK

When I convert the MRK file to MRC file, and migrate to Koha, it is creating several items - for each item.  Can someone tell me as to how to make the data appear in one line as below:

=952  \\$aAG$bAG$g695$o420 TON$pGN 1$yBK

We can correct/edit manually - if we have few entries.  Since we have hundreds of records to migrate, is there any way to do this automatically for all the records at one go?

(Note: We are using Koha Version: 3.00.05.003)

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Regards,

S.Anand
