Hello Anna,

You might want to look into the Digitization Work Order plugin
<https://github.com/hudmol/digitization_work_order>, which might meet your
needs. The plugin allows you to generate unique identifiers for selected
archival objects within a resource record that is then added to that
object's Component Unique Identifier field. It also gives you the ability
to download a simplified tsv file of those selected components. At NYU we
use this to facilitate our digitization workflow that involves transferring
archival materials between different departments, but we've also adapted it
for other uses. I'll also include a link to the portion of our local
ArchivesSpace manual with instructions
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/11kWxbFTazB6q5fDNBWDHJxMf3wdVsp8cd7HzjEhE-ao/edit#heading=h.5kg8ir70qq1n>
on how to use it. I'm happy to answer any additional questions you might
have about it.

Hope this is helpful. Take care,
Rachel
