Margo,
You're a life saver, and since the life you probably saved is my own, I am very grateful.
Thanks!
Linda

Yes, that's right.  You should be able to see that in your Authorized Values.  
I've attached a screenshot of ours.

Margo,
Thanks for the reply.  We were discussing that possibility and I was wondering if having anything 
in the 942 subfield n suppressed it or does it have to be a "1"?  So is it unsuppressed 
if it's a "0"?

I really appreciate your help.

Linda,

I would change the default for 942$n to 0.  Your staff will then use the 
correct framework, but add changing 942$n to 1 as part of their workflow.

Subject: [Koha] Koha suppression of records

All,
We are having a problem with suppression of newly created records in
Koha and wonder how others are handling the work flow with newly
created records and items. We have/had some of our frameworks set up
where the default for the 942 subfield n was 1 so that a record when
created would be automatically suppressed.  But that record can't be
unsuppressed, apparently and stay in that framework because when
saved, the default setting puts it back to 1  - suppressed.  So we
were going to then leave the default framework  to be unsuppressed,
meaning that if a record is "finished" it has be be changed to
default.  The problem is the the 952 fields are set according to
framework - because we have so many different types of materials and
collections that adding new items goes much faster when you are in the
right framework.  But if you change a records framework to add items,
then you must remember to change it back every time to get it
unsuppressed again.  So, our system isn't work
ing.

I'm having a hard time convincing the staff this isn't a bug in Koha, that it 
just is the way it works.  So my question is, what does work?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
