2 ITEMS WORKING MODES
The Items function is divided into two working modes: Overview mode and Functional mode. Each mode is selected by clicking one of the buttons in the upper link frame.
2.1 OVERVIEW MODE
The Overview mode displays a tree of the records in the system that are related to an item.
In this mode records can be "pushed" from one module or functionality to another. The Overview mode is comprised of two panes. The left side of the pane, which contains the Overview Tree, and the right side of the pane, which contains the Record Bibliography window.
The Navigation Pane displays the Overview Tree, which shows the records
in the system that are related to an item.
For example, it displays the bibliographic record, the holdings record and the HOL record. These can be further sub-divided into: Items, Subscriptions and Orders.
Highlighting an item record in the Overview Tree will display its details
in the rightside of the pane.
Highlighting a BIB record node in the Overview Tree and clicking Cataloging transfers the highlighted BIB record to the Cataloging module and will activate the HOL Records
tab in the lower pane.
The HOL Records tab lists the holdings records linked to the record displayed
in the Catalog Editor.
Highlighting a record in the Overview displays its details in the right side of the pane as follows:
