How it works
Users with "Manage Repository" permissions will see a new menu item in the Repository settings menu (click the gear icon to the right of the selected repository). Use the "Department Codes" setting to add and remove codes for your Repository.
Department codes will appear in a dropdown for the second part of the Accession identifier.
The first and third sections of the identifier will be system-generated upon saving the record. The fourth section will be removed.
