You can create a single item record by completing all the fields in an item record.
To create a single item record
1 | Open the List Items window for the bib record to which you want to add an item record. (For instructions, see Opening a List of Items.) |
2 | Click New. |
Horizon displays the Edit Items window:
3 | Use this table to complete the fields on the window as needed (if you do not complete a required field, Horizon displays a reminder when you try to save the item record): |
4 | If your library is using the Inventory Number, the Call Number Prefixes, or the Closed Stack Access Call Number Prefixes feature, complete the following fields as appropriate: |
Field |
Action |
Inventory Prefix |
Enter the prefix that Horizon should add to the beginning of this item's Inventory Number. Click Codes to select a prefix from a list of possible values. |
Inventory Number |
Leave blank if you want Horizon to fill in this field automatically based on the value of the Inventory Prefix field. If you manually enter a value in this field, Horizon saves the Inventory Number as-is without using the value in the Inventory Prefix field, if there is one. |
Call No. Prefix |
Enter the prefix that Horizon should add to the beginning of this item's Call Number. Click Codes to select a prefix from a list of possible values. |
CSA Number |
Leave blank if you want Horizon to fill in this field automatically based on the value of the CSA Prefix field. If you manually enter a value in this field, Horizon saves the CSA Number as-is without using the value in the CSA Prefix field, if there is one. Note: This field does not display by default; it must be added manually to the item Mq View to display in the item record. For information on how to add this field to the item record, see the "Setting Up Call Number Prefixes for Closed Stack Access" topic of the Cataloging Setup Guide. |
