As I understand it, external_id in erm_eholdings_packages is used for the linkage with EBSCO HoldingsIQ, and was/is designed to be governed by Koha's ERM, not the end user. (In reply to Katrin Fischer from comment #5)
Maybe we could talk about this next week. We are investigating ways to link to another knowledge base, not FOLIO. In our case the external_id would be a national identifier for the package on this level which presents as a somewhat short alpha-numeric code. We would want libraries to be able to add their own packages, including entering the identifier that would later be used to match bibliographic records to the packages/titles/resources.
We are adding additional fields support for ERM packages in bug 37577. Surely it would satisfy your use case Katrin? You can configure a Folio ID field, a national identifier or anything else. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
