[Koha] Import holdings as a separate file to MARC bib. records

[Fischer, Katrin]

Hi Iming,

the matching process uses Zebra to find the right match. 997$c has to be indexed for this to work and the index name needs to be added to your matching rule configuration.

Also I think you need to have all subfields for an item in one single 952 field in order for the items to be imported correctly.

Hope this helps,

Katrin
