Connexion Client 2.30 includes an enhancement that gives us the option to export workforms without adding records to WorldCat and setting holdings on them and without adding OCLC numbers to them.
A new checkbox called 'Allow export of workforms' has been added to the Tools/Options/Export tab. The setting defaults to unchecked. If checked, the Action/Export command is enabled if the active record is a workform.
This option could be used when you want to use the editor in Connexion to create the record and then export it into your local system, but you don't want to add it to WorldCat.
Another reason is that you might want to pull records from Aleph, do some sort of global change and then bring them back into Aleph. Not having to mess with getting the 035 number properly formatted into a 001 field so that Connexion sees it and allows export is a big help.
