Hi,

I am trying to use dc.date.issued in the bq field of dismax parser. But I 
cannot use it as it is multivalued. My plan was to make the field single 
valued, though I am yet to look at how to do that.

But, I stumbled upon the field dc.date.issued_dt. I saw that this field has 
been used in the configuration file as one of the sorting fields for dspace 
discovery search, which also required the field to be single valued. But I 
could not find any documentation describing about this field. My 
understanding from my limited observation is that this field is created by 
dspace as the dc.date.issued field can not be used to sort because of it 
being multivalued. And dspace creates the corresponding dc.date.*_dt for 
all dc.date.* fields.

And if that is correct, I can simply use the field dc.date.issued_dt in the 
bq field of dismax parser instead of making the field dc.date.issued single 
valued.

Could anyone please confirm or correct my understanding or point me to the 
documentation that I have missed but explains about this field.


Best regards,
Kiran
