Frequency Wizard

The Frequency policy is used to specify the serial publication frequency. From the List Policies window, you can create, display, modify, copy, or remove the Frequency policies. Click Close to exit the wizard.

The standard delivered Frequency policies reflect the MARC21 codes. You will need to decide which type of serial record, MARC21 or UNIMARC, will be the primary type of record you will be loading, and set the frequency codes accordingly.
