[Koha] More export/import questions

[Joel Harbottle]

Hi Scott,

As a Cataloguer, I have just noticed another potential problem in your snip from MarcEdit. I have copied and pasted your MarcEdit snip below, and have also put the problem(s) in bold text.

So, in your example, you have the same barcode(s) utilised twice in the listing of Items. The only exception to this is the last line of Items, with Barcode '74255'.

If you are able to find a fix to this problem, would you be able to either send the fix to me via email, or send to the entire list?

Best Wishes
Joel

Subject: [Koha] More export/import questions







Hi all,
Thank you all for the responses to my previous questions about exporting/importing biblio data.
I think I have a grasp of what need to be done.
(seems to be a big bigger job than I was hoping for...)
 
With that said.... I noticed another potential issue (maybe?).

**************************************
 
In the above snip from MARCedit, the 3rd line and the 7th line both reference the same item ($p70265 -- barcode # 70265).
Is this normal?
Will the data in line 7 overwrite the data from line 3?
ie: if line 3 contains the $v2008-08-17 field data, and line 7 does not, will the result be an empty $v field?
 
Should I be concerned with this, or is this a normal occurrence?
 
Thank you again for any insight.
