Note that collection level records should be ingested into Sierra prior to the barcoding process. If a collection level record is not available, notify the Archival Cataloging Librarian.

...

IF the collection has been completed, return to the “Sign Up” tab and record the date in the “Date Finished” tab. Leave any comments or notes in the “Comments” field (this can also be done throughout the process). Please note if boxes were missing from the shelf. Then choose a new collection to work on.
