Hi Kevin
Not sure I've fully understood the question but I think the MMS ID is the PNX ID. Have a look at an FAQ we created here to see if that helps: https://faqs.aber.ac.uk/1297
And I understood that yes the LCN field in bookmarks is populated by the MMS_ID generated from Primo.
Finally we use the data in Aspire for purchasing material to resource reading list. We use reviews only for digitisation. We run items added to lists report three times per week and then check against the number of copies on stock (which was automated when we had Voyager but we can't do that with Alma because of the 66k rule in Analytics and anyway it was proving too imperfect so we've reverted to manual checking) and we check this against number of students on the module. This is all done with Excel spreadsheets. It isn't perfect but it got us up and running in a very short space of time and very little resource. Happy to discuss further if you wish to contact me off list.
Best
Julie

Morning,
Sorry to post this again, but I would really appreciate some more feedback - thank you very much to the one person who replied off-list.
I know there are other Alma & Aspire users out there!
Any experience or information you have about this would be useful. Particularly about the relationship between the PNX and the MMS IDs.
I am working on the assumption that it is a 1:1 relationship, if anyone can confirm this...?
Thank you,
Kevin

Afternoon,
I'm new to Alma and Primo, so still working out some of the idiosyncrasies of both.
Apologies if this has been covered before, but I could not find anything on it.
For other Alma users: what information is populating the LCN field in your bookmarks generated from Primo?
Is the MMS ID (99...), or the PNX ID (201... or 221...) ?
Do you use your reading list data (e.g. the All List Items report) as part of occasional usage analysis projects or regular stock maintenance tasks, matching that data up with circulation stats or holdings data from Alma?
Thanks,
Kevin
