Not all MARC fields are available as parameters in Alma Analytics. To remedy this problem, up to 10 bibliographic fields can be reported in Alma Analytics under Bibliographic Details as 'Local Param' fields from 1 to 10. Additionally, up to 10 Holding fields can be added to the Holding Details dimension of the Physical Items subject area as Holding Local Parameters (1-10)
In order to implement this feature, you must contact Alma Support via SalesForce Case and indicate the bibliographic or holding fields and their corresponding 'Local Param' fields. All MARC fields other than control fields can be added as local parameters. Accordingly, the field must be greater than or equal to 010. The code tables are not customer facing so I am including them here.
