To trigger a delete record, you have three options within WorldShare Collection Manager:
Note: Records will only be issued for titles within collections that have OCLC Numbers. All types of records - Deletes, New, Merges, Updates - require the record to have an OCLC Number listed.
When you start to process, process in date order, if you have files for more than one day to process. Start with the oldest date first.
Process your files in this order: Deletes, New, Merges, Updates. If we do not have a file for a particular type, you won't see it listed (ie. If there aren't any merge records, you won't see a merge file).
Remember when downloading files from OCLC for processing, files are only available for 90 days and when they are gone, we cannot get them back.
We zip files within a few days of posting them for downloading. You'll need to unzip the files before processing. If you download the files as soon as we post them, even if you can't immediately process, they won't be zipped. If the files are zipped, you'll need to unzip them before processing and you may want to use a free utility such as 7Zip.
