Alliance Plus

As Alliance Plus processes each bibliographic record, the progress window

displays the results of the record comparison. The progress window also

keeps track of the number of records processed and missed (not found).

The figure displayed in the Records Not Found field represents the bibliographic records

Alliance Plus couldn't match during the Autorecon process. Use the Process Misses feature to

enhance these records after the Autorecon is complete (see Chapter 32, Process Misses").

To interrupt the Autorecon process, click Cancel. The Alliance Plus main window reappears.

Note: Stopping the process does not undo the changes on the processed records.

When the process is complete, the Cancel button changes to Close.

4. Click Close. The Alliance Plus main window reappears. If any errors

occurred during the Autorecon process, Alliance Plus generates an exception

report and uses the application associated with text files to display the report.

5. If you are using Alliance Plus CDs and want to run the autorecon against

another one, replace the processed CD and click New Source. On the Data

Sources dialog, click Refresh, highlight the CD, click Select, and then repeat

the Autorecon process.

Tip:

For best results, we encourage you to run Autorecon against Alliance

Plus Online or the most current Alliance Plus MARC and Vintage CD

databases that you have, before you start a Process Misses session. This

lets Alliance Plus automatically process as many bibliographic records

as possible and reduces the number of records you need to address

manually using Process Misses.

6. Use the instructions presented in Chapter 32, Process Misses," to search the

Alliance Plus data source database for bibliographic records missed during

the Autorecon.
