We haven't come across that problem as far as I know but I assume your
location mapping table is set up correctly. Again it's a long time
since I had to look at the table but as far as I remember the table is
only accessible in telnet.
Our link maintenance has done strange things in the past and sometimes
running link maintenance for the entire database rather than those
records which have changed helped to solve the problems.
If it still doesn't work you may want to open a Helpdesk call quoting
recent examples.

However, the automatic update is not working quite correctly, in that if there are two items at the same site, it repeats the location code in the bibliographic record. So for example if 1 copy were in the main collection (mc), and the other were in the Sion building (sion), if the Sion copy were moved to the main collection, the locations on the bibliographic record then read 'mc, mc'.

Searching the item locations in the create lists function does not flag up the errors, because the item locations are correct. This then means that I cannot carry out a global update to delete the unnecessary extra locations, except by manually checking each of the 4000+ bibliographic records attached to the item records I updated. Am I missing something?
