When you import order data using the MARC order import process, we use up to two levels of "matching" to find the correct WorldCat record. We have enhanced the second level of matching by prioritizing records with the greater number of holdings in WorldCat. Previously, matching did not take into account the number of holdings a record had when choosing the best record. Now, for the secondary matching process, it does take this into account, picking the record with the most holdings if possible.
When you import an EDIFACT invoice, you can now import an item with a quantity less than quantity ordered. Previously, you could only import the exact quantity ordered as the quantity of an invoice item. Now, you can import an invoice item with a quantity less than the quantity ordered, as long as the copies are not invoiced yet. This allows you to invoice only some of the copies ordered.
