13 RECORD MANAGER
The Record Manager (lower section of the left pane) displays information regarding the record currently being edited in the Catalog Editor. The information is displayed in tree structure after
opening a record from the server or after saving a new record. The pane is left empty when editing records that have not been sent to server.
The purposes of the Record Manager are the following:
-
The Record Manager shows the records in the system that are related to the
record currently being edited. For example, it displays the administrative
record, the items and the holdings records attached to the selected
bibliographic record. Note that the display in the Record Manager is limited
to 800 lines.
-
The Record Manager provides access to the all associated records. This is done by selecting the desired node and choosing the Load/Create Record option from the Record Manager menu or by selecting the same option when right-clicking on the desired node.
-
With the record manager you can load linked records. Creation of new records is not available.
-
The Record Manager provides access to the Items function (Items tab) of the Cataloging module. Double-clicking the Items node enables you to view or add information about items. You will be
transferred automatically to the Items function of the Cataloging module. The Items node also lists the items available for the current record. Double-clicking an item transfers you to the Items tab and it enables you to view the selected item.
