It is possible to let the user sort the search results in the WebOpac, using hyperlinks above the columns. For this it is necessary to have the required sort indexes. You can not define your own sort indexes. But you can specify which profile must be used for each sort index.
It is also important to use the option on this screen, after you have made the relevant definitions in the WebPreferences.
Relations deals with the link that can be made between various records in the same database.
In this diagram you see three layers: the series, the parts and sub parts. A bibliographic record can be of a series title, which has relations to the records of the individual parts of the series. These records of the individual parts have a reciprocal relation to the main series record. On the other hand the individual parts can also link to sub parts like the individual tracks on a CD etc. These are also reciprocal.
The relationships are denoted by arrows in the diagram. It is important to note that a relationship between records can be made from a low level to a higher level or vice versa - the choice is yours. Note also that the reciprocal relation is created automatically by the system.
V-smart has a list of relation types. You can look up this list through AFO 151 -> Relations. You can add new types if necessary.
Double click on a type to bring up the input screen for editing the details of a relation:
