Item Management includes the item editor, the custom status manager, the batch item editor, and the item field manager. Libraries have complete control over managing and describing their items using these tools. Libraries can create as many site-specific item fields as necessary. They can determine which item fields to display in the DL and which to display to staff, which fields are mandatory for record saving, and how many items are required per bibliographic record. Libraries can also create custom statuses for their items which can then be governed by special circulation policies which also determine suppression or display in the DL. Libraries also create and manage as many item types as necessary, and each item type can be controlled by different circulation policies. Item data is captured in the MARC 949 field for export.
