Hi Sarah,
It says "No new permissions or administrative settings are needed
to use this feature." Maybe they don't have to be "created," but
we found that new permissions had to be added to the Cat 1 log-ins
in order for cataloging staff in Indiana to use this feature. And
of course there are different levels of permissions: Consortial,
Local System and Branch. It would be nice if documentation
addressed this, and what affect adding permissions at the
different levels will have.
You're right, and I missed that piece when I was reviewing the documentation.
There are three permissions we needed to give catalogers -
CREATE_MONOGRAPH_PART, UPDATE_MONOGRAPH_PART DELETE_MONOGRAPH_PART -
and, since a part is shared by all libraries in the consortium, they
needed to be applied at the consortial level. This sentence should
probably be replaced with:
"The CREATE_MONOGRAPH_PART, UPDATE_MONOGRAPH_PART and
DELETE_MONOGRAPH_PART permissions need to be applied at the consortial
level to use this feature."
Robert, what is the best way to update the community docs with that
information? Should I be submitting a bug through Launchpad?
Also, the documentation only addresses applying parts when
creating new volumes. Is that the only way to apply parts? I have
tons and tons of existing items where I'd like to apply parts.
Currently I have to delete and re-add to do so?
You can add a part to an existing item by using the "replace barcode"
option from holdings maintenance. When using the unified copy/volume
editor, you can also add/edit a part by selecting "edit items."
This is something that should probably be incorporated into the
documentation for "Using the Copy Editor to Make Changes." In looking
at the 2.1 documentation outline -
http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-docs_2.1:outline - it
looks like we're still looking for a volunteer to create those docs.
Thanks for reporting these issues Sarah!
