Add a post-import normalization process option to Import Profile configuration
Currently, Import Profiles contain a single selection for normalization (Correct the data using). This enhancement would clarify that this process operates on incoming records only pre-load, and would add the ability to select a second normalization process after records are fully loaded and merged.

We have a similar case of use. We import bibliographic records from a quick cataloging tool . Call number stays in a 094 field and location information in 952 field. After files are loaded and bib records with inventory created and normalized in Alma, we have to run a search, save a set, and run a new normalization process to suppress 094 and 952 that were used for creating our Holding 852 $$b $$c and $$j subfields.
With Aleph tab_fix file, we could set all the successive stages within a unique process. -
If you could provide more details on which use cases and scenarios this would be beneficial, this could help Alma Product Management better analyze this idea.
