Hello:

We just got SirsiDynix Symphony Workflows and I am trying to figure out a pattern for Woman’s Day magazine. I am using Chronology Type: Date; Publication Cycle: once a month on 1st and 17th; OMIT 17th for months that it is only published once a month. But…the one-issue months only use Month and Year so staff should edit out the day and we have a lot of branches and each checks in their own magazines. Each year the date of the 2nd issue of the 2-issue months changes and they are never on the same day of the week. I think Family Circle is similar.

 

 Does anyone have a better pattern?

 

Thanks very much,

Hallie
