Changes to MARC records not saved to WorldCat after clicking Produce and Update holdings

Symptom
  • Edits made to WorldCat records are lost after setting holdings in Connexion client.
Applies to
  • Connexion client 3.1
  • Connexion client 2.63
Resolution

Be sure to lock the WorldCat record before making permanent changes to records in WorldCat.  Any time you edit a record without locking or replacing it, you are making local edits.   A locally edited record is a copy of the WorldCat record that you can make temporary changes to without affecting the permanent WorldCat record.
