+ | {{ :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. | ||
