[Wactclc-alma] Help with normalization rule

[Elena Bianco]

So, I am trying to eliminate our old Millennium bib numbers that got moved to the 035 field during migration. I came up with this normalization rule:

rule "replace -element- with  -text-"
#where -element- is:
#035.a.(WaMtvS)
    when
        TRUE
    then
        removeField "035"
end

It works, but the problem is, it deletes all the 035's, including the one that has the OCLC number that I want to retain.

Then I tried this:
rule "035 (WaMtvS)"
when
exists "035.a.(WaMtvS)"
then
removeField "035" if (exists "035.a.(WaMtvS)")
end

That did nothing.

How can I tell it to ONLY remove the 035 that has this element? Help!

Thanks,

Elena
