Transfering Records from RLIN to Innopa LDA Commands
Each RLIN record to be passed into Innopac must have one LDA
(Local Data Element A) field. This LDA field uses commands that are listed in
the Innopac Manual, v.1, Bibliographic Utilities section (search record
numbers 10,031 and 10,445).
The bibliographic record level commands:
Do the following if you are PUTing a bibliographic record and you already have
the Innopac bib number, e.g. .b1243567;
1--At the end of all fields on the RLIN screen, type LDA with blank indicator.
2--Type * (Shift*) ov=.b-------;
Ex: LDA[indicator blank] *ov=.b1243567;
ov means: Overlay bib record number .b1243567 with
the new record that you are sending (ov=.b1243567),
3-If you are PUTing a record into Innopac but you
are not overlaying it (there is no Innopac bib number) write:
LDA *b3=z;
Tip 1: Always remember to end the LDA command
with a ";".
Tip 2: Always remember to add "." before
"b".
Tip 3: To prevent overlaying on Gleeson's records,
always overlay on a bib record number, e.g., ".b_________," never
an order record number.
The item record level commands:
We
can create item records by creating a separate LDA field with a second indicator
of 1 (one) using subfield i.
Do
the following:
1-
In RLIN type LDA and second indicator 1.
2-
Type "|" (this is the "-" key in the upper right corner
of your number key pad) and subfield i.
Ex:
LDA 1 |llaw
This
is going to create one item record in Innopac. If you want to create more
item records you should open the record in Innopac and do it there. This is
also true for any other changes that are needed in an item record such as itype,
volume, location, status, etc...
Tip
1: If you overlay a bib record with an item record and for some reason
you want to pass it again, take off the LDA 1 |l that you created the
first time in RLIN; otherwise when you pass the record the second time it will
create a second item record in Innopac.
Tip
2: If you are passing a bib record to overlay a brief record that already has
an item record you don't need to create LDA 1 |l
Tip
3: There is no ";" at the end of LDA 1 |l
Tip
4: Barcode numbers are given to an item by students during the label processing.
How
to PUT a record from RLIN into Innopac:
After
you fill up the LDA field(s) and you are ready to PUT a record into Innopac,
go to the RLIN ENT screen by hitting + key (ENTER key in RLIN) on your number
key pad and type PUT. Your command should look like this: ENT/PUT.
After a few second you see a short inscription come up on your RLIN screen saying:
TRANSACTION SUCCESSFUL. All transfers into Innopac will be done later
by batch loading.
