Hi Mary; One possibility might be the creation of a flex field group called "FFG Object Groups". Within this group you could create a variety of logical fields, e.g., Deaccession, Offsite Loan, etc. On each object record check the appropriate field within that group and when you are done you can run an advanced query on that field, or combination of fields, within FFG Object Groups, where the field(s) = Yes. Hope this helps.

For example, one group might be objects being considered for deaccession. Another group might be objects being considered for offsite loans to schools. Creating object packages would work, but I'd also like for the group designation to be visible on the data entry screen ideally. Any suggestions for a field to use or where/how to create one? thank you.
