| + | [[Archival institution|Archival institution]] descriptions are structured into [[Information area|information areas]] based on the ICA's ''International Standard for Describing Institutions with Archival Holdings '' ([[RS-3|ISDIAH]]). This section describes how to create, edit and delete [[Archival institution|archival institutions]]. The ''Data entry'' pages gives detailed notes and explanations for every [[Field|field]] included on the [[Edit screen]]; where there is a one-to-one correspondence between an ISDIAH [[Element of description|element of description]] and an ICA-AtoM [[Field|field]], the note typically just gives the ISDIAH rule verbatim. |

| |
− | | |
− | *If [[Archival description|archival descriptions]] are registered to the institution as the [[Repository|repository]], you will be prompted whether or not to delete these descriptions as well; if you opt to retain the [[Archival description|archival descriptions]], ICA-AtoM will clear the "Repository" field in these records.
