+ | The options on this form refer specifically to MARC Global; this form does not display during MARC Review. | ||

+ | Record Marking | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sometimes it is useful to mark records that are modified by MARC Global so that you can later identify changed records, or create subsets of a file that contain only changed records. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Select the 'Mark Records' | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Record Mark field box should contain a valid MARC tag, followed by a punctuation mark, followed by a subfield. In the case of the leader, enter the position (zero-based) in place of the subfield. For example: ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Record mark data box should contain the data that you want to use as a ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Clear Record Marks on each run: If you are dealing with a file that you have previously modified with the 'Mark Records' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Please exercise common sense when using this option. You should not use record marks in any meaningful MARC field. Many vendors use the last two bytes of the leader to mark records (000/22 and 000/23), since these bytes are not really implemented in MARC. The other wise choice would be to use an unused local field (9XX). (You can get a list of all the unused 9XX fields in your database by running the MARC Verify utility on it). | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Update or Create the 005 Field | ||
+ | |||
+ | If selected, the 005 will be updated in every record that is changed by the global change run. If a changed record lacks an 005, a new one will be created. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The 005 date/time stamp is constant throughout the run: a date/time stamp is computed at the beginning of the run, and that same date/time stamp is used, where applicable, throughout the run; it is not recalculated for each changed record. | ||
+ | |||
+ | IMPORTANT: Selecting this option also selects the option to sort tags in a record. If you do not want your tags sorted, do not use this option. | ||
+ | |||
