Create archival description from accession record
- After you have created an accession record you have the option of creating an archival description by clicking on the button "Create Archival description" in the button block.
- The accession record is not aimed at end-user description, but ICA-AtoM provides the option to create an archival description from an accession record. The following archival description fields inherit the data entered into the accession record: title, name of creator, archival/custodial history, scope & content and physical condition. Name access points and Rights added to the accession record are inherited into the archival description.
- ICA-AtoM takes you to the View archival description screen.
- You can see that the data you entered into the accession record fields: title, name of creator, archival/custodial history, scope & content and physical condition are all inherited into the archival description. If you added rights to the accession they are also inherited.
