Hi Jordon,

I would be interested in this functionality.  I seldom get a complete record group in one accession, so I am constantly
adding accessions to my record groups.  Sign me up as someone willing to push for this functionality!

Sincerely,
VivianLea

Hi all,

We have an interest in linking archival objects (i.e. the levels below collection level) in resource records back to the
accessions they came from. The situation that precipitated discussion about this possibility was that we have one series of
materials that is associated with multiple accession records.

Unless I’m missing something, the only way one can currently link to accessions from resource records is at the collection
level. There is no “Related accessions” feature at levels below that.

The way we’re doing this now is creating an accruals note at the appropriate level and typing the accession number into the
free text field, but having a direct link between the two would be handy. For born-digital collections, we are also linking
the original containers from which the digital content came to the appropriate level in the resource record using the
instance module.

I’m wondering if others in the community have discussed or considered this before.

Thanks!

Best,

Jordon
