RE: Connexion and exporting to Innopac

["Mary Cross" <marycross at colacoll dot edu>]

I, too, am late in transferring to Connexion, but our problem is a
little different.  The bib and item records export to the database, but
no message is received on the receipt printer.  Have any of you had this
problem?

TIA 
Mary Cross

Subject: Connexion and exporting to Innopac



We're just getting around to setting up Connexion for our staff - I
know, I
know, we should have done it months ago, but life's like that
sometimes.  For the most part we seem to have things working fairly
well,
but there's one problem I haven't managed to fix yet.

We import our bib records from OCLC prior to ordering.  In Passport,
when
the record was exported to our Innopac, the message that showed up in
Passport confirmed that the export was successful - "BIBLIOGRAPHIC
record
created" - and displayed the bib number.  In Connexion, on the same
computer, using the same gateway, the message that comes back says
"BIBLIOGRAPHIC and ITEM record created" and does not give the bib
number.  When we check the record in Innopac, the bib record displays
correctly, and there is no item record (which is the way it ought to be
-
we create the item record later, when the item is received.)

We just upgraded to Silver and we're running the Connexion Client.  
We're
not using MilCat yet - still on the character-based system for
cataloging.  The help desk says that the message sent back from the
Innopac
when the record is received is the same no matter whether what utility
we're using, so the problem must be with Connexion.  I'm waiting to
hear
back from OCLC, but I was wondering if anyone on the list has had a
similar
problem and if so, what they did to fix it?
