Collecting copy barcodes
You can use your PHD's copy mode to gather copy barcodes for exporting

records that may not have anything else in common, thereby reducing your
overall effort.
To enter copy mode, from the main menu press
F1
. The Circulation Plus menu
appears. Press
F4
to open the Copies Menu. From the Copies Menu you can:
S Scan copies for Cataloging maintenance or Reports. See the following steps.
S Review your copy scans. See page 678.
S Erase your copy scans. See page 679.
Warning: To avoid accidentally changing or deleting the wrong copy
records, make certain to erase any existing copy scans before you
start collecting new scans (see page 679).
