Solution for print item added to online bib

[jdessino]

At TCC, we sometimes had an item record for a print resource added to a bib record for the online resource.  The solution was to make a small change in our Import Profile. I'm posting Beverly Hill's write up of the solution, in case anyone else has seen this happen:

Problem:  Items for print materials were added to bib records for an online resource.
               
 In Alma we have our import profile set to match on ISBN (exact subfield match)/024/035 Match Method.  If an imported record matches on any of those three fields the imported record overlays the existing record already in Alma regardless of format.  This mostly occurs because of the ISBN numbers. See Alma Match Methods:  https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/040Resource_Management/060Record_Import/020Managing_Import_Profiles#Match_Methods_.E2.80.93_Explanations_and_Examples

Resolution: In the Import Profile set the option “Single match - match only record with the same inventory type (electronic/physical)” to yes.
 
Note:  To find these problem records currently in Alma use the search: Physical Item: Advanced Search: Carrier Type Term=”online resource”
