Notes on P2E (Physical to Electronic Processing) at Migration: This applies to records that cannot be migrated using an e-Activation worksheet (above) – usually content that does not belong to an eResource package or is not available in the CKB. Due to Alma’s database structure, local catalogue records for these electronic resources are migrated as physical resources, then changed into electronic resources viahttps://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Physical_to_Electronic_(P2E)_processing. In brief, this may involve the following steps:-- Ensure the links for locally catalogued eResources in your source system are active.
--Consistently identify/tag catalogued eResources in your source database (If not done already). You’ll be mapping these tags to locations and identifying these locations as electronic resources on the Alma Location mapping tab. The bibliographic records for these collections will be sent to Ex Libris along with the rest of your MARC records.
--Creation of an input file (csv format) of bib record numbers that correspond to the eResource collections that you are migrating from your source system (e.g., from MARC 001). The migration specialists will match this file to the corresponding recently imported bibliographic records in Alma to create electronic portfolios.
--Once migrated, Ex Libris may guide you to run a job in Alma to update your proxy prefix if changes are made to local authentication policies. Running this job in Alma will update user access via Primo.
