| − | The tool contains - just like the Archives Portal Europe's Dashboard - functionality which is not really necessary for the basic workflow of uploading, processing and publishing finding aids, but which offers additional value, for individual institutions as well as for the portal. | + | The content of this page has been integrated into the [https://www.archivesportaleurope.net/tools/for-content-providers/data-preparation/data-preparation-tool-manual/ website of Archives Portal Europe] now. |

| − | == Holdings guide creation form ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The button '''''Create holdings guide''''' in the '''''Summary''''' tab becomes available once at least one valid apeEAD file has been selected. Clicking on the button opens a new window containing the file(s) selected to be integrated in the Holdings guide (it’s preferable to save your finding aids before beginning).

| − | <br clear=all>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The holdings guide creation screen is divided in three parts:
| + | |
| − | * on the right you see the list of the finding aids you have selected to be connected to the holdings guide,
| + | |
| − | * in the middle you will see the tree structure of the holdings guide appear once you start building it
| + | |
| − | * on the left you have access to ordering buttons ('''''Up'''''/'''''Down''''').
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | An extra dialogue screen (Edit) with some input boxes via which you can start building the structure of the holdings guide is shown on top of this screen.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | First you have to provide in the '''''Edit''''' window some information to describe your holdings guide: '''''Identifier''''' (<unitid>), '''''Name''''' (<unittitle>) and '''''Description''''' (<scopecontent>). Only the Identifier and the Name are mandatory. Once you have created this 'root' part of the holdings guide, you can use the same functionality to expand this any further to a structured hierarchical tree. You just have to provide the same information (Identifier and Name) for the lower levels, that is: if you do create lower levels, because you can also stick to just one main level.

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * you can create as many levels and sub-levels as needed to organise your holdings guide; the structure will be displayed in the middle part of the screen as a tree,
| + | |
| − | * once you have created your hierarchy, you simply drag and drop the files into the corresponding levels,
| + | |
| − | * if you need to re-arrange the hierarchy or the order of your files: the '''''Up''''' and '''''Down''''' buttons on the left enable you to move files or levels inside the same level from one place to another; to move an entire level to another level, you have to use the drag and drop facility,
| + | |
| − | * right-clicking on a level or a file enables you to add, edit or remove a level, or remove a file; in the last case, the file(s) will be available again in the right part of the screen for further use,
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * once all finding aids have been inserted into the holdings guide structure, click on the '''''Save''''' button; the finding aids left in the right part will not be integrated,

| − | | + | |
| − | * after validating it, save it before closing the tool, using the '''''File''''' and '''''Save selected APE file(s)''''' functionality.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The newly created holdings guide has the following characteristics: all information of each level (Identifier, Name and Description) are transformed into c-levels (unitid, unittitle and scopecontent) and all information of the file levels are retrieved from the files themselves (unitid, unittitle and scopecontent) but the <eadid> of each file becomes part of the otherfindaid/extref-element used in the holdings guide for linking to the finding aids.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ''Note that when saving the holdings guide, a serialised file is also saved for loading the file at a later stage if wanted. This serialised file is saved with a ".ser" file extension in the output folder of the tool. This ".ser" file can serve as a basis to further modify or complete the holdings guide, if it has not been overwritten or moved from the output folder. One can always save it and replace it in the output directory for further modification.''

If your identifier is not a registered ISIL code or unique within your country, please specify '''''no''''' for the question '''''Is this your registered ISIL code?'''''. Your file will then get an extra value as identifier ([country code]-99999999999) for the time being. When uploading this file to the dashboard, this temporary value will be recognised as such and will be replaced automatically by a unique identifier within the Archives Portal Europe. If you have more than one identifier assigned to your institution, you can add further identifier fields by clicking the '''''Add further IDs''''' button.''
