[Koha] Call numbers from 099

[Dillon Moore]

Hi Elaine,

Have you tried Marcedit? When you open a MARC file in Marceditor, there is a "Swap Field Data" option under the Tools menu item. If you fill in the top Original Data fields with 999, indicators (probably '\\'), and 'a', and the bottom Modified Data fields with 952, //, o, then check the "Add to existing field" box at the bottom, and hit Process. This should move all the data in 999a fields to 952o.

Subject: [Koha] Call numbers from 099

I thought I got this to work, but now I'm hopelessly confused.
(version : 	3.00.01.005)
We have our own system of call numbers, which I was planning on
putting into 099a
I thought I had figured out how to get Koha to take the contents of
the 099a and put it into 952o.
But now it doesn't seem to do it.  I fear I've twiddled too many
settings and have gotten myself into a muddle.

a) what settings do I need in the MARC format to have Koha put the
099a call number into the 952o field?
b) or is this something I should set up to happen during our data
migration? It just seems like a lot of work to have to retype the same
call number for every item. . .
Thanks!
