Updated: Excel to Koha Data Import via MarcEdit
Greetings of the day.
Please let me know the Excel sheet bibliographic record entries for multiple items of a record. i.e. Multiple copies of a book. e.g., Accession number 480 to 484 (5 copies) of the book, "Food flavours technology handbook".
I am using MarcEdit to convert .xls to .mrk and .mrc. Then Koha - Tools - Sage MARC records & Manage Staged MARC records.
At present, there are 5 rows with all fields same, except Accession Number field.
But MarcEdit creates one record for each row, with one item associated with each record.
Instead I want One record with 5 items associated with it.
Please help, what should be the Excel sheet format, and other care to be taken.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Mataprasad

First create one record with only one barcode.
When imported, import other records with matching rules set to author and title matches.
It will create one record and 5 items after that.
