Static matchSuppress from discovery

Use Static match Text = true and Instance record field: Admin data: Suppress from discovery as a submatch to narrow search results to only a single instance suppressed from discovery

Use Static match Text = false and Instance record field: Admin data: Suppress from discovery as a submatch to narrow search results to only a single instance NOT suppressed from discovery

Similar static matches can be constructed for the Instance Staff suppress and Previously held checkboxes

  • For repeated fields, current functionality is
    • Only first incoming field is considered for matching, but it matches against any copy of that field in the existing SRS MARC
  • Need additional MARC-to-MARC matches for normalized control numbers, e.g. ISBN, OCLC number. See UXPROD-2742

Additional details about MARC-MARC matches for repeatable fields:

Pretend that these fields are in an incoming record: (Field Ind1 Ind2 Subfield)
024 _ _ $a 12345
024 1 1 $a 45678
024 1 _ $x 67890
024 2 2 $x 67890

And the fields in the existing SRS record are
024 2 2 $x 67890
024 _ _ $a 12345
024 1 _ $x 13579
024 1 1 $a 45678
024 1 _ $x 67890

FOLIO only pays attention to the first incoming field, not the rest, but compares to any matching fields in the existing record.

When setting up different match profiles, this is the logic that is in place now:

If the match profile is 024 _ _ $a:

  • Matches, because the incoming first 024 looks for an existing 024 with blank indicators and $a and the same value (even though that is the second 024 in the existing record)

If the match profile is 024 1 1 $a:

  • Matches, because the first incoming 024 with indicators 11 and $a (which is the second 024 in the incoming file) looks for an existing 024 with indicators 11 and $a and the same value (which is the fourth 024 in the existing record)

If the match profile is 024 1 _ $x:

  • Matches, because the first incoming 024 with indicators 1_ and $x (which is the third 024 in the incoming file) looks for an existing 024 with indicators 1_ and $x and the same value (which is the fifth 024 in the existing record)

If the match profile is 024 2 2 $x:

  • Matches, because the first incoming 024 with indicators 22 and $x (which is the fourth 024 in the incoming file) looks for an existing 024 with indicators 22 and $x and the same value (which is the first 024 in the existing record)

However, pretend the incoming record looks like this:
024 1 1 $a 12345
024 1 1 $a 45678

And the existing SRS record is
024 1 1 $a 45678

If the match profile is 024 1 1 $a

  • Does not match, even though “024 1 1 $a 45678” is present in both incoming and existing records.
    SRS starts searching a field specified in match profile, and only considers the first occurrence of 024 1 1 $a in the incoming record. The first occurrence is “024 1 1 $a 12345". So, SRS tries to match “024 1 1 $a 12345” and can’t find it in the existing record.

For 5C, a good use case is our NAXOS where we have 5 urls that are pretty much the same but our link text is all different and unique for each school. Having this match point would be powerful to work with our eResources

Static matchHoldings Type?Is this currently being used? If so, please provide an example or use case.
UChicago has been using a static match on holdings type since Lotus. It is currently working in Nolana. We use this regularly to differentiate between holdings that are physical and electronic, especially when receiving shelf ready cataloging at the point of invoicing since the location will be same for both physical and electronic holdings. We also use it to make sure that we update the instance record with the electronic holdings attached vs the instance record with the physical holdings attached if both forms of the record have the same OCLC number, which happens with electronic record sets from vendors on a regular basis.
