--- Comment #13 from Marcel de Rooy <m.de.rooy at rijksmuseum.nl> ---
The manual here needs some attention too !

Link

    If you enter a field/subfield here (200b), a link appears after the
subfield in the MARC Detail view. This view is present only in the staff
client, not the OPAC. If the librarian clicks on the link, a search is done on
the database for the field/subfield with the same value. This can be used for 2
main topics :

        on a field like author (200f in UNIMARC), put 200f here, you will be
able to see all bib records with the same author.

        on a field that is a link (4xx) to reach another bib record. For
example, put 011a in 464$x, will find the serials that are with this ISSN.

    Warning

        This value should not change after data has been added to your catalog.
If you need to change this value you must ask your system administrator to run
misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl.

Koha link

    Koha is multi-MARC compliant. So, it does not know what the 245$a means,
neither what 200$f (those 2 fields being both the title in MARC21 and UNIMARC).
So, in this list you can “map” a MARC subfield to its meaning. Koha constantly
maintains consistency between a subfield and its meaning. When the user wants
to search on “title”, this link is used to find what is searched (245 if you’re
MARC21, 200 if you’re UNIMARC).
