Action

Create Inventory Holdings from MARC Bib

Yes

pre-Iris

Most fields populated via 9xx data and defaults in the Import field mapping profile

Action

Create Inventory Item from MARC Bib

Yes

pre-Iris

Most fields populated via 9xx data and defaults in the Import field mapping profile

Action

Create SRS MARC Holdings

Yes

Kiwi

Only 1 default MARC Holdings-to-Inventory holdings profile so far

Action 

Create SRS MARC Holdings via quickMARC

Will happen outside of data import. Technical approach is outlined 

Matching

MARC Bib-to-MARC Bib

yes *

pre-Iris

*001 and 999 ff only; can do exact match with Poppy.

Matching

MARC Bib-to-Inventory Instance

Yes

pre-Iris

Usually based on Instance HRID or UUID, or other identifier

Matching

MARC Bib-to-Inventory Instance, using OCLC number or other control numbers

Yes

pre-Iris

For OCLC numbers, make sure to set "numeric only" for incoming MARC Bibs and existing Instance Identifiers

Matching

MARC Bib-to-Inventory Instance, using ISBN

yes *

pre-Iris

ISBN match in Inventory does not validate the ISBN or match ISBN-10s to ISBN-13s

Matching

MARC Bib-to-Inventory Holdings

Yes

pre-Iris

Usually based on Holdings HRID or UUID, or Permanent/Temp location from MARC 9xx field or Static match 9xx field

Matching

MARC Bib-to-Inventory Item

Yes

pre-Iris

Usually based on Item HRID, UUID, Barcode in MARC 9xx field, or Permanent/Temp location from  MARC 9xx field or Static match

Matching

MARC Holdings-to-MARC Holdings

dev *

 

001 and 999 ff only (what about the 004?)

Matching

MARC Authority-to-MARC Authority

Yes

Lotus

 

Matching

Static match

Yes

Iris

Can be used as a secondary match only; common ones are Permanent or Temporary location (any others?)

Matching

POL or Vendor Reference number from incoming MARC Bib to FOLIO POL, to create/update associated SRS MARC Bib, Inventory Instance, Holdings, and/or Item

dev *

 

Planned for Lotus. POL or VRN must be in MARC 9xx field (or possible 035 field) only

Misc

MARC field protection

yes *

???

Rudimentary field protection in FOLIO currently. Aiming to refine in Lotus to account for repeatable fields properly. Currently an Update MARC Bib Action Profile must be included in the Job profile for field protections to take effect. Once the SRS MARC record is updated, the Inventory record's fields that are controlled by the SRS MARC will be automatically (implicitly) updated. Not yet tested for MARC Holdings or MARC Authorities.

Misc

Override MARC field protection

yes *

???

Rudimentary field protection overrides in FOLIO currently. To invoke, include an Update MARC Bib Action Profile in the job profile, indicating which of the protected fields should be overridden (thus UNprotected for this job profile. Once the SRS MARC record is updated, the Inventory record's fields that are controlled by the SRS MARC will be automatically (implicitly) updated. Not yet tested for MARC Holdings or MARC Authorities.

Misc

Update individual fields of a MARC record

yes *

???

Rudimentary functionality in FOLIO currently. To invoke, include an Update MARC Bib Action Profile in the job profile, indicating which individual MARC fields should be updated. Once the SRS MARC record is updated, the Inventory record's fields that are controlled by the SRS MARC will be automatically (implicitly) updated. Not yet tested for MARC Holdings or MARC Authorities.

Misc

Import MARC Bib to Create/Update Inventory Instance, Holdings and/or Item, and then discard the MARC Bib
