What is the function of the previous shelving location in Item Details?

Applies to
  • WorldShare Circulation
  • WorldShare Record Manager
Answer

Previous or Former shelving location comes from the LHR 852 $d field and is for information purposes only.  The field is not automatically filled and does not control system behavior in WorldShare Circulation.  Item details allows users to select from a list of shelving locations at the item’s current holding location.  Record Manager will allow a free text entry for the $d, but it will cause a validation error if it does not match a previous shelving location.

Additional information

Please see 852 Location (NR) for more information.
