949 field mapping
Summary: Using a 949 field in an imported MARC to populate values in FOLIO is only an option when using Data Import. This procedure includes instructions on how to construct a 949 to work in concert with FOLIO’s job profiles to bring in a record and trigger data formatting and presets.

This configuration is a change from the initial practice of using 947, 948, and 949 fields for instance / holdings / item data respectively. As of the Poppy release installed in March 2024, Data Import cannot accommodate multiple 9XX fields related to one singe instance. (The Poppy release included new functionality to create multiple holdings/items – but data for each one must have its own 9XX field.)
