New, revised, and deleted MARC bibliographic records in Alma must pass through the following operations before they are available in or removed from Primo:
1. Network Publishing Job (Alma enhances records with inventory and authority date, publishes them to a holding pen)
2. Primo Harvest from Alma (Primo harvests the records from the holding pen, filters them through normalization rules and other processes to create PNX records; some revised records may be available at this point)
3. Indexing and Hot-swapping (Primo indexes the PNX records, uses PNX elements to construct brief and full record displays, facets, browse content, some availability information, and so forth)
New, revised, and deleted inventory (holdings and item records, e-collection/service and portfolio records) and their data are available in or removed from Primo immediately
