Serials: Editing of Description Needed
When opening predicted items, the Description-Field is populated by the data provided in “Next Predicted Item´s information” and displays these data in a certain punctuation-logic. Unfortunately, this logic is not equal to the description- (and punctuation-) logic used in German speaking countries (which is following ZETA-Standard) – and there is no possibility to edit this. Since there has to be a correct description (for sorting etc.), the only way is to open and edit every single item once it is created by prediction pattern. This is causing a lot of unnecessary work to be done manually - we need the description template to be editable so that items with a correct description can be created automatically in the first place!
Impact of Problem: Predicted items are displayed in a certain logic, for example: “V:No(Year)” [journal] or “Year: Day” [newspaper]. Format needs to be editable to suit local format (and punctuation) logic – for example “V.Year,No” [journal] or “Year,Day” [newspaper]

We are also experiencing this as a problem. Each time we create predicted items we need to use "run a job" or the cloud app "multiple item edit" to generate a new description for the predicted items. This takes a lot of time, and seems unnecessarily complicated. In our configuration, under resources - general - description templates, the logic for how the description should look has been created. This logic should be used when creating the predicted items.

Liebe Frau Weitlaner,
falls Sie es noch nicht Wissen, wenn Sie ein ^ als Platzhalter in ein Feld im "Next Predicted Items Information - Formular" eingeben, dann wird das Feld wenn Sie im entsprechenden 853 $$ Feld auch ein ^ einfügen nicht angezeigt. Das heißt es können zumindest mal unnötige Informationen ausgeblendet werden.
Beste Grüße
