Open an item record for editing
1) Conduct a Physical Items search to retrieve the record of interest
2) Click the hyperlinked Barcode or the Edit Item button to open the record in the Physical Item Editor for editing
If you have selected a different search type in Step 1, you will have to view the List of Items first before you can access the hyperlinked Barcode or the Edit option under the ellipsis icon
3) Click Save when changes are complete
If you are in the Physical Item Editor in a free-text field, you can just hit the Enter key and it will save the item. This does not work if you're in a controlled field (like a dropdown or date picker).
Item records are not locked
In the small-probability event that an item is open by two Alma users simultaneously for editing, whoever saves the record later overwrites the other's editing.
The History tab of an item record displays editing history by timestamp and Princeton ID.
You can't restore a previous version of the item record with a single click, but you can copy/paste a previous value into the appropriate field in the item record should you need to restore certain data.
Change item location
Let's take a look at MMS ID 99918183506421 .
In Voyager, one holdings 102868 with two items attached, both copy 1. This is the Alma model:
Open the item record of your choosing. Under the location information section, change the Permanent location to the item's new location.
When the confirmation message pops up, select Confirm.
Now you should see 2 holdings: 22133313300006421 (original) and 22479639610006421 (new).
