When the record details have been saved, you add information on subscription, and perhaps also schedule:
- Click to view the objects (items or issues) associated with the record
- Right-click on the cover image or icon of the record in the OPAC and choose Objects
- Or Click on the title and choose Items
- From the Objects Overview choose:
- Metadata > Add subscription
- Fill out relevant fields, and click to save.
- Remember to check whether the serial is meant for physical routing in your organisation, or for notification to interested patrons upon reception of new issues
Please note that information on subscription is not saved when mandatory fields are not filled, ie. supplier information.
