Purpose:  This page describes data value crosswalks and data element mapping for the migration of Invoice data from Aleph to Alma.  This video from ExLibris provides instructions to complete the migration form that we need to complete prior to the automated migration of Aleph data to Alma.  The decisions we need to make about invoice data migration are outlined on this page.

Data Mapping

This table describes the Alma target field for each Invoice field in Aleph. Note:  Much of this content was copied from Harvard's data mapping guides, last updated in 2018. Please consider this page a draft until the Duke team verifies that this mapping information is current and concurs with Duke's migration decisions.
