The client status bar at the bottom of the main client window displays by default. The purpose of the status bar is to show various kinds of status information for the current logon session and/or the current (displayed) record to help you keep track of your work as you manage and process records. You can also hide the client status bar.
Record status information is stored only in the working copy of records saved in the bibliographic save file. (Exception: the status for Report Error is not stored when you save a record.) Statuses are not retained in the WorldCat record.
For a displayed bibliographic record, the status bar shows:
For a displayed authority record, the status bar shows:
Note: When you lock WorldCat bibliographic and authority records, the word Locked appears in the record information area. Locked status is not in the status bar.
The status bar displays at the bottom of the client main window, unless you hide it. To toggle between showing and hiding the status bar, navigate to View > Status Bar. A check mark indicates that the status bar is displayed. No check mark indicates that the status bar is hidden.
Default: The client displays the status bar.
