[IUG] Uploading CLS FTP file from Baker &Taylor CLS

["Duncan, Julie" <jduncan at city dot newport-beach dot ca dot us>]

Hi Everyone,

 

We are at the stage of receiving our first FTP file from Baker & Taylor,
CLS and I am unsure of what to do. Does anyone you have any advice for
me? Or any procedures that you follow? 

 

Previously, in Horizon, B & T would work directly in our system, at item
level, editing barcodes, call numbers etc. and the status would change
from "on order" to "in processing".

 

How does this process work now that we are using Millennium? In Data
Exchange, we have a Load Bibliographic Records (batch) Load Table with
949 tags in it- is this sufficient? Are they really shelf-ready still or
is there another step, i.e. 'receive items'? Do we need templates? Does
this mean the bib and order record will get this info and we will still
have "receive" and create item records on our end?

 

Any help with this would be appreciated. 75% of our work is outsourced
to B & T CLS.
