Exception message What it means
The MARC record does not contain a
245 tag, Title Statement. 245 tag
created from existing <main title tag>.
The import encountered a MARC record that did not conĆ
tain a 245 tag. Since the Follett Software applications reĆ
quire each bibliographic record to contain a 245 tag (also
recommended by the Library of Congress), one was added
to the record using the contents of another main title tag
(130, 240, 246, or 247) in the record. Since this is an autoĆ
mated process, you should verify that the new 245 tag is
complete and correct.
MARC record is invalid. The import encountered an unprintable character serving
as an indicator, an invalid (nonĆalphanumeric ASCII
character) or incomplete subfield marker, or a subfield
without data. The entire record was skipped.
Not a valid MARC record. The import encountered a MARC record with a MARC
directory that was incorrectly structured or was too short
to be valid. The entire record was skipped.
Price <incoming price>" is too long.
Copy price will be set to zero.
The import encountered a copy with a price that contained
more than 8 digits before a decimal point, more than 2
digits after a decimal, or more than 10 digits total. If the
copy was added to your database, the price was set to
zero.
Price <incoming price>" has been
modified.
The import encountered a copy with a price field that had
more than one price (e.g., $34.95 ($51.95 Canada)"). If the
copy was added to your database, only the first price was
included.
Record exceeded 256 tag maximum. The import encountered a MARC record with more than
256 tags. The entire record was skipped.
Record less than 40 characters. The import encountered a MARC record with less than 40
characters. Since the record isn't large enough to contain
an 008 tag, the entire record was skipped.

error. The entire record was skipped.
Unable to acquire a lock on the
