Incorrect Instance Is Connected to a POL
The Move Starts in the Orders App

Go to Actions
Select “Change Instance Connection”
In the popup window
Select instance HRID
Paste the correct bibliographic record instance HRID
Click on the title that comes up
In the popup box, you’ll see “All related item records will be moved to the correct instance. How would you like to address the related Holdings?”
Select Move - this moves the holdings and items from the incorrect bib record to the correct one.

You now see the instance preview in a dual view with the incorrect bibliographic record next to the correct one.
Select the holdings and items from the incorrect record. The box will be above the holdings
Click Move to. The title might be the same but click on that
Click continue
You will still be in the dual view and now will see the holdings and item on the correct bibliographic record
To get out of the dual view, click on the x in the upper left hand corner of one of the instances
To Finish the process
Once you are done moving the holdings and items, remember to:
Update and/or remove any holdings on OCLC WorldCat records
If the incorrect bibliographic record has no holdings or items, it is not connected to anything, mark this record for deletion.
