Adding a Field to a Dynamic Record
A dynamic workform lets you add needed fields in addition to editing the information in existing fields. You do this by adding field groups. This allows you to customize records to suit your library’s needs. However, you cannot add field groups to a dynamic workform until your system administrator has set them up. (For more information, see “Setting up Non‑MARC Parameters” in the Cataloging Setup Guide.) Also, you cannot add authority fields until you have created an appropriate authority non‑MARC workform. (For instructions, see Creating a Non‑MARC Workform.)
