Item Record Property Fields Definitions (Data Fields, Holds, Fines & Bookings) (Create Lists)

Some fields in Create Lists store record properties from your system's database. You can search on these fields just as you do with standard fixed-length and variable-length fields. In some cases, the fields duplicate data found in the standard fields.   The property fields for item records appear in the Data Fields, Holds, Fines, and Bookings tabs. Here is information on the Create Lists Sierra Fixed Field Item Definitions.
