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.

== 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).
+
 
+
[[File:APE_DPT_manual_40.png|400px|thumb|left|APE DPT manual, figure 40: the holdings guide creation screen]]
+
<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.
+

+
<br clear=all>
+
 
+
* 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,
+
 
+
[[File:APE_DPT_manual_42.png|400px|thumb|left|APE DPT manual, figure 41: save the finished the holdings guide]]
+
<br clear=all>
+
 
+
* after saving the newly created holdings guide, you return to the '''''Summary''''' tab; the holdings guide is shown at the bottom of the list in the left and now you have to validate it,
+
 
+
[[File:APE_DPT_manual_43.png|400px|thumb|left|APE DPT manual, figure 43: save the finished the holdings guide]]
+
<br clear=all>
+
 
+
* 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.''

+
== EAG creation form ==
+
 
+
The EAG2012 standard is based on the ISDIAH standard. Please see for more information the [[EAG2012|EAG2012 page]] of this wiki.
+
 
+
You can access the EAG creation form via the main menu option '''''Actions''''' and the submenu options '''''EAG 2012''''' and '''''Create a new EAG 2012 file'''''.
+
 
+
The form has seven tabs. The first tab, '''''Your institution''''', contains all mandatory elements required to create a valid EAG file. Numerous fields can be translated, therefore you have the possibility to select a language on the right of these fields.
+
 
+
[[File:APE_DPT_manual_44.png|400px|thumb|left|APE DPT manual, figure 44: the EAG creation form]]
+
<br clear=all>
+
 
+
You move from one tab to another by clicking on the '''''Next tab'''''/'''''Previous tab''''' buttons and you can save your file from any of the tabs by clicking on the '''''Save''''' button without going through all tabs. The '''''Exit''''' button closes the screen without saving the file.
+
 
+
Once you have created your EAG file, you have to validate and save it in order to upload it in the Archives Portal Europe's Dashboard.
