Loading files
- Holly and Molly receive email updates from OCLC when certain processes are completed. The email that indicates files are ready has the subject:
TEU -- The report (Bibliographic Record Processing Summary -- Data Synchronization) you requested for DATE
- Files are retrieved via FTP (see above) from /metacoll/reports and will begin:
- metacoll.TEU.datasync.1024500-1024500
- Download all files and open the .mrc file in MarcEdit. Be sure UTF8 is selected under Default Character Encoding when using MarcBreaker.
- Run the task OCLCbatch
- Compile into a MARC file, but add "LOAD-" at the beginning of the filename so it doesn't overwrite the original file from OCLC.
- In Alma, go to Resources > Import and run WorldCat data sync overlay
- "Select file" and attach the "LOAD-" file from above and then Submit
- Go to Admin > Run a job and select Post-load for WorldCat data sync (TEU)
- View the report and fix any issues

Physical titles - WorldCat has catdate AND has inventory AND unsuppressed (All) - OCLC holding libraries only - Logical
Brief Level contains keywords "10" AND
Has inventory equals "Yes" AND
Tag Suppressed (Title) equals "No"
Holding Library = See above
Filter by WorldCat batch processing filter (TEU no WCAT)

when
(exists "997.d.TEU") AND
(not exists "997.e.WCAT")
