When you reformat a MARC record, Horizon sorts the tags of the MARC record in the order that your system administrator designates and deletes all unused tags and fields that may occur in the record. This lets you create or edit a bib record and enter tags as you think of them, rather than in any specific order.
Reformatting a record makes the record appear as it will be when you save it. This process does not update any links or any indexes associated with the record.
Constraints
