Now that we have an understanding of the migration process, let's learn how to prepare for the migration. We prepare the plan in two parts; first, we determine how we will source data for the holdings subfields in Koha. Next, we decide what data we will need to setup in Koha prior to importing the MARC file.
In the first part of the plan, we set up a table listing all of Koha's the first part of the plan, we set up a table listing all of Koha's holdings subfields. We map each subfield to a corresponding subfield in the source file. If corresponding fields for any mandatory Koha fields are not available in the source file, we will need to add data manually for such subfields while editing the file.
