titleReporting Code 1: Order Material Type

We plan to apply the Aleph order material type to our migrated orders after go-live using the PO Line API to update Reporting Code 1. The PO Line Type in Alma is not as granular as we’d like for our reporting needs and the PO Material Type for electronic orders is not a customizable list. To best accommodate our reporting needs, Reporting Code 1 contains a list of order material types.

Note: Discussion 4/25/24 about open gap to identify Packages

titleOrder Group - Propose adding to Reporting Code 1 (material types)

Update on 5/13: Julie added tentative values to the Reporting Code 1 list above to include the Law library values as a proposal for review.

The Aleph Order Group is used by the Law Library to indicate publication types. Could these values be added to Reporting Code 1?

titleLaw Foreign Expenditure

LC class number in 949 field for tracking specific foreign expenditure.  Usually it is a 1-3 character code.

  • Are there other ways to track the jurisdiction within Alma such as on the invoice or by looking at foreign vendors?

  • It looks like Analytics offers some data elements from MARC in the Fund Expenditure subject area - is that a possibility for this?

  • 5/15/24: Law will think through how to capture this in Alma since it’s captured in MARC - could we build a query looking for the jurisdiction and then join to a list of expenditures? Possibly use a Local Param in analytics? See: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Knowledge_Articles/Add_bibliographic_fields_to_Alma_Analytics
