Search and browse through local and shared instances and local holdings/items (UXPROD-4138 & UXPROD-4241)
Held by & Shared facet
Description: Added two new facets to allow users to filter shared vs local records as well as filter records by which member libraries have holdings on shared records. An icon was also added to the search results pane to indicate if a record is shared.
...
Changes/additions: In order to view shared records from a member tenant, users must have the appropriate permissions in the central tenant.
Known limitations:
Note that in the production environment, the central tenant (“Consortium” in screenshot) will NOT show in the Held by facet as the central tenant can't currently have any holdings or items
- In the find instance plugin, the Held by facet does NOT currently filter to the corresponding locations in the effective location facet. This will require additional work on the plugin.
Actions required: None.
Effective location (item) facet
Description: Like single-tenant environments, this facet will display the effective locations for items on Shared or Local Instances (depending on selection in Shared facet).
Important considerations:
Changes/additions: In order to view effective locations from other tenants in this facet, the user needs to have view permissions in the corresponding tenant.
Known limitations:
- The ability to view all effective locations regardless of permissions is currently not supported. This is being considered for future releases
Actions required: None.

Create new shared or local MARC bibliographic record (UXPROD-4316)
Description: Utilizing the functionality to create a new MARC bibliographic record in the quickMARC UI, this same functionality can be used in an ECS-enabled environment to create a new shared or local MARC bib record. If the user creates a new MARC bib record in the central tenant, this record will be shared. Conversely, if the user creates a new MARC bib record in a member tenant, the record will be local. Note that once a new local MARC bib and the corresponding instance are created, this record is eligible to be promoted to shared.
...
Derive a shared or local MARC bib record from a shared instance record (UXPROD-4212)
Description: The ability to derive a new record from a shared instance record is supported. If the user is deriving from a shared record in the central tenant, a new shared record will be created. Conversely, if the user is deriving from a shared record in a member tenant, a new local record will be created.
...
Editing a shared MARC bib record in quickMARC (UXPROD-4213)
Description: Users have the ability to edit a shared MARC bibliographic record in quickMARC from a member tenant, as long as that user has permissions to edit in the central tenant.

...
