WorldShare Record Manager release notes, September 2022

User Preference

A new User Preference "Check Duplicate Call Number" is now available under the "LHRs - Working with Records" tab. Enable this parameter if you want call numbers that you're adding or editing to be checked for duplicates.

Check duplicate call number in the LHR MARC21 editor

When you're adding or editing an LHR in the MARC21 editor and you click on "Save", the call number will be checked for duplicates if the respective user preference (see above) is enabled.

You will see a warning message telling you that the entered call number already exists. The call number displays as a hyperlink. Clicking on that hyperlink will take you to a result list of one or more LHR(s) that contain the same call number.

If you want to ignore the warning and add the LHR as it is, click on "Save" and the LHR will be saved with the duplicate call number. If you want to go back to the LHR and change the call number you entered, click on "Close" and continue editing the LHR.

You can also decide to check for duplicate call numbers before saving the LHR. If you want to manually check for duplicates, expand the Record menu and select the option "Check Duplicate Call Number".

Check duplicate call number in the LHR text-view editor

When you're adding or editing an LHR in the text-view editor and you click on the "Add" or "Save" options, the call number will be checked for duplicates if the respective user preference (see above) is enabled.

You will see a warning message telling you that the entered call number already exists. The call number displays as a hyperlink. Clicking on that hyperlink will take you to a result list of one or more LHR(s) that contain the same call number.

If you want to ignore the warning and add the copy or item as it is, click on "Save" and the record will be saved with the duplicate call number. If you want to go back to the record and change the call number you entered, click on "Cancel" and continue editing the record.

You can also decide to check for duplicate call numbers before saving the record. If you want to manually check for duplicates, click the "Check Duplicate Call Number" link in the upper right corner of the screen.
