Use this link to:
- View the resource's current container/location
- Edit the resource's current container information
- Delete an existing container
- Assign to an existing container
- Create a new container and assign the resource to it
Go to physical storage edit screen
In the archival description view page click the "Link physical storage" button.
View current container/location
If the resource is currently assigned to a container, the "containers" section will appear.
This shows the container name, its location, and its type.
If the resource is not currently assigned to a container, this section will not appear.
Edit current container
If the resource is currently assigned to a container and the container information needs to be updated (e.g. the type is not correct or the location has changed), click the edit icon.
ICA-AtoM routes you to an edit page for the container; change the "Name", "Location", or "Type" as required and click the "save" button in the button block.
ICA-AtoM returns you to the archival description view page.
This action updates every resource registered to the same container; e.g. if six resources are registered to box D9, you need only edit box D9 once and the changes will be reflected in all six archival descriptions.
Remove a resource from an existing container
You can remove a resource from a container by clicking the delete icon in the "containers" section.
Assign to an existing container
To assign the resource to a different container or additional container, use the drop-down menu to select the container you want to use.
When you save the record, ICA-AtoM will update the description.
Create a new container
If the container you want to use does not appear in the drop-down menu in step 5 above, it is not registered in the system and needs to be created; use the "create a new container" section for this.
Enter the container name, type, and location.
When you save the record, ICA-AtoM creates the container and assigns the resource to it.
