External Email - Exercise Caution Hi Mark! I would be very hesitant to use the SubLevel field for container information. It is a free text field (which always leads to typos) and it lies outside the location hierarchy, so creating accurate inventory lists becomes very challenging. On the other hand, container/crates are a royal pain. The process of moving objects in and out of containers is not at all intuitive in the location move assistant, and this can lead to errors and frustration. But I do think in the long run it is preferable to using a free text field like the SubLevel field. We have been putting box locations in the Unit field of the location authority under the appropriate storage room and bay. That is a challenge, too, if you have entire boxes frequently moving to new locations, because you have to create a new unit location, move the objects to the new location, and then deactivate the old unit location. But at least the move process is clear that way. Now that we are moving in to TMS Collections, we may try containers again, since the move assistant looks like it handles containers better. Happy to talk more about this if you want to email me directly! Cheers, Fatima -- Fatima Mahdi Collections Information Specialist/TMS Virginia Museum of Fine Arts 200 N.

I'd like to begin tracking solander boxes using container field in location tab. Level or Sub level fields may also be options. I'm curious to hear what colleagues are doing elsewhere.

We are looking for a way to create timecodes for av media and then add them information to TMS and though we hope for such a possibility to be available in media studio directly at some time, we need some solution for the interim time, so if any of you have experiences in that area, we would be very happy to hear about them Best regards, Iris Iris Blochel-Dittrich museum documentation Stiftung Jüdisches Museum Berlin Lindenstr. 9-14 10969 Berlin T +49 (0)30 259 93 442 M +49 (0)170 12 34 000 **** CURRENT EXHIBITIONS **** "My verses are like dynamite" Curt Bloch's Het Onderwater Cabaret 9 Feb to 26 May 2024 https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jmberlin.de%2Fen%2Fowc&data=05%7C02%7CTMSUSERS%40SI-LISTSERV.SI.EDU%7Cc39ca72d207c48ea754508dc5e592163%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638488984118200691%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=RZvEU%2FaX00OhTUKZPChAeATCEMzK6HOvxijQpHv4hI8%3D&reserved=0<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jmberlin.de%2Fen%2Fowc&data=05%7C02%7CTMSUSERS%40SI-LISTSERV.SI.EDU%7Cc39ca72d207c48ea754508dc5e592163%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638488984118200691%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=RZvEU%2FaX00OhTUKZPChAeATCEMzK6HOvxijQpHv4hI8%3D&reserved=0> Jewish Life in Germany: Past and Present Core exhibition https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jmberlin.de%2Fen%2Fcore-exhibition&data=05%7C02%7CTMSUSERS%40SI-LISTSERV.SI.EDU%7Cc39ca72d207c48ea754508dc5e592163%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638488984118200691%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=XmAMFj8oC1ki3Rstz2munfnSziZ9FZlWFmjYtfx8ml0%3D&reserved=0<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jmberlin.de%2Fen%2Fcore-exhibition&data=05%7C02%7CTMSUSERS%40SI-LISTSERV.SI.EDU%7Cc39ca72d207c48ea754508dc5e592163%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638488984118200691%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=XmAMFj8oC1ki3Rstz2munfnSziZ9FZlWFmjYtfx8ml0%3D&reserved=0> **** FOR CHILDREN **** ANOHA - The Children's World of the Jewish Museum Berlin https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.anoha.de%2Fen&data=05%7C02%7CTMSUSERS%40SI-LISTSERV.SI.EDU%7Cc39ca72d207c48ea754508dc5e592163%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638488984118200691%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=y%2BNuFXp7sVb8nv7Pze%2B3L6jIGsm1d%2Bu%2FlOqGZB%2F5Dl0%3D&reserved=0<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.anoha.de%2Fen&data=05%7C02%7CTMSUSERS%40SI-LISTSERV.SI.EDU%7Cc39ca72d207c48ea754508dc5e592163%7C989b5e2a14e44efe93b78cdd5fc5d11c%7C0%7C0%7C638488984118200691%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=y%2BNuFXp7sVb8nv7Pze%2B3L6jIGsm1d%2Bu%2FlOqGZB%2F5Dl0%3D&reserved=0> To unsubscribe, send an email to [log in to unmask] with the following commands in the body of the email: signoff TMSUSERS // eoj You will receive a confirmation that your subscription has been removed. ------------------------------ End of TMSUSERS Digest - 11 Apr 2024 to 15 Apr 2024 (#2024-19) ************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an email to [log in to unmask] with the following commands in the body of the email: signoff TMSUSERS // eoj You will receive a confirmation that your subscription has been removed.
