Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] two quick questions about biblio.record_entry

Two quick questions:

 

Is biblio.record_entry.id the unique number for a bib record?  I assume
it is, but wanted to double-check.

 

Does a no in biblio.record_entry.active mean that there is no item
attached to the bib record?

 

Thanks!

For the first question, yes (see attached screen shot to see some of the
linkages that the record id has to other tables).
 
In regards to active = false -  I believe if the record is deleted, the
active flag gets set to 'false' - some copy related info is still
retained in the database (but also marked in the relevant table with
active =  false). This allows one to undelete a record later on.
