The fields that support CSA call number prefix functionality do not display for editing in the item record by default; you will need to add them manually to the item Mq View for them to display for editing in the item record.
CSA call number prefix functionality is feature-activated; if you want to use the CSA Call Number Prefixes feature on your library system, contact SirsiDynix Customer Support.
