 +{{ :​pergamonmu:​general:​general-bookmarks-lists.png|Recently Imported List}}At the point of import, new UKMarc record are not accessioned and therefore have no local HID (Accession or Barcode Number).
 +
 +In order to uniquely identify records that have been imported into the database, HID numbers are created in the format:
 +
 +  * imported_rcn###########​
 +
 +Where the suffix is created from the unique RCN (record control number) imported from the UKMarc data file.
 +
 +In order to assist in identifying the new items and replacing this temporary HID with a true accession number, a pre-defined [[pergamonmu:​general:​bookmarking_and_lists|List]] called [**Recently Imported**] is provided with all Pergamon databases which displays only those items with this HID pattern. As items in the list are updated with new Accession numbers, the list will diminish.
