Hi Thomas, yes, that might well be the cause. You should check your MARC records with MARCEdit or another tool before import. Please also watch out for the sorting of the fields within the MARC record. The fields (tags) should be in ascending order, 100 before 245 and so on. A scrambled field order might lead to problems when importing.
Then, if you have items with your MARC records, make sure to put the item information in field 952 for import in Koha. There is documentation at: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Holdings_data_fields_(9xx). Make sure that authorised values like e.g. library branches, item locations and/or collections, item types... are correctly set in Koha and match the corresponding subfields of 952 in your MARC records.
