1. After the 876 fields are created for the bound with holdings and the “parent” record with the item that contains the barcode is accessioned at the Annex, Batch Processing receives an email of a report generated by a weekday scheduled cron job detailing the mismatch of locations between the “parent” and the other holdings with the 876 barcode.
2. Batch Processing uses this report to execute a script to flip the holdings with the 876 field to the “parent” MFHD’s location and create item without barcodes (“empty”) with an enumeration of “Bound with or “Filmed with.” If the 876 field has a subfield 3 with the enumeration of the volume or reel that title is contained in, then that is appended to the enumeration of the “empty” item record.

Ex. Boundwith:v.4-8

Note: “Empty” items should only be created after the parent holding has been accessioned. Otherwise this causes problems for staff at the Annex.
