Upload Electronic Holdings (Autoload holding list) – the reports do not listed out the deleted titles
We use the autoload feature to update electronic holdings for specific vendors such as ScienceDirect and Ovid.
After autoload, we find that the job will list out the no. of portfolios “added”, “updated”, and “deleted” but without the deleted titles listed out at the job report. Whenever a portfolio is deleted, we need to check if the deleted titles are removed correctly? Do we have perpetual access right for the deleted titles and do we need to claim for the access right with the new publisher.
We use the load portfolios tool in the Electronic service to add/update/delete portfolios for collections without the autoload features. We can validate online or download the action list to check if the add/delete/update actions are really want by us before performing the update. Why the same validate file is not available for the autoload function and the deleted titles cannot be listed out for follow up action? I really appreciate if ExLibis will consider it and include also the deleted titles in the report for the customers to check and follow up.
