The following helpers may be available.

The Insert Row Before Helper, Insert Row After Helper, or Delete Row Helper are available for adding or removing extended information fields.

The following fields are defined for the List Line tab.

Author

This field contains the item’s author. This field is cataloged using the 1XX field and can be a personal, corporate, or government name. Added or secondary authors display in 7XX fields.

Binding

This field contains values from the Binding policy in Acquisitions Configuration. Your library decides what type of information will be used in this field. The Binding field indicates the binding type when an item is ordered. Examples of binding types are Library, Paperback, Reinforced, Board, and Hardcover. A selector can indicate the binding type desired when making purchase decisions on selection lists. The binding types available for selection display in a list.

Call Number

The call number is a number (and/or letters) assigned to an item according to a particular classification scheme. It determines the item’s placement in the library collection. When creating an item, a temporary or automatic item ID may is assigned by SirsiDynix Symphony which can be modified or replaced later. An AUTO call number will be generated in the form XX(999999.1).

Comment and Note

Selection lists, list lines, and decision records can contain comments. If the Comment field is completed for a list line, the comment may be included in orderline extended information.

ISBN/ISSN

A standard title ID field, labeled ISBN/ISSN, displays in orderlines when an orderline is created or modified. The ISBN/ISSN values are provided by default from the corresponding tags in the bibliographic record in the catalog, with the ISBN coming from the 020 and the ISSN coming from the 022. The ISBN is displayed as a 13 character string with no spaces or punctuation. The ISSN is displayed as a pair of four character strings separated by a hyphen.

When an orderline is created, the first ISBN or ISSN found in the bibliographic record is inserted in the ISBN/ISSN field according to the following rules. For dated orders, the ISSN will be used first, and the ISBN will be used if no ISSN is available. For all other orders, the ISBN will be used first, and the ISSN will be used if no ISBN is available. For orderlines not linked to the catalog, the ISBN/ISSN field will be empty.

Publication Info

This field contains the publication location, publisher name, and the publication year. To learn more about how this field is cataloged, see Searching by Publication Year.

Title

This field contains an item’s main title, using initial capitalization. This field is cataloged using the 245 tag.

Unit Price

The Unit Price field contains the price the vendor wants you to pay for the orderline item in the vendor’s currency. It is for only one copy, prior to discount. It does not matter if the unit price is in dollars or in another currency. The application of any TABLE discount by the vendor, any foreign currency exchange rate, and the multiplication by the number entered into the Quantity field occurs automatically to provide the extended price.
