Hello cataloguers

Do any of you catalogue items that are both hard copy and a PDF file in the one 
catalogue record? I realise it is probably not common practice, but this has 
been done in my workplace for years and now that I am starting to use RDA I'm 
unsure whether to continue and  whether they should now be in completely 
separate records.

Is this the way that you would do it in RDA if you catalogued them in the one 
record:
