Enhancements when importing archival objects with containers?

cbogsin opened this issue · 3 comments

Thank you so much for this plug-in! It's going to make our lives so much easier here.

I have a couple of questions/possible enhancements.

  1. Is it possible to use the spreadsheet to assign locations to the containers? I don't see a field for this.
  2. Is it possible to use the spreadsheet to assign profiles to the containers? I don't see a field for this either.
  3. Is it possible to create more than one container per created archival object using the spreadsheet? (Our use case is that a particular archival object may be located in a paper folder in a box, but also on microfilm in a completely different box).

Thanks again!

Hi, Carli,
Sorry I was out a bunch of days, and this got lost in the sauce :-(

At the moment, we don't have this kind of support. However, we're soon going to be working generally on container management enhancements, so this kind of enhancement may fall out as part of that.

Sorry I can't immediately give you the answers you seek.

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.

If we can do anything to help with use cases or the like, let me know!
