There is a second group of item statuses that doesn't fall into the location category quite as seamlessly.  These item statuses might be “Bindery", “Repair", “On search", or “Damaged".  In this case, it may be a better fit to map these item statuses to a process type instead of a temporary location. If you are interested in mapping these item statuses to a process type, you will define these statuses as process types in the configuration form under the WorkOrders tab.  For instance, you could add a BINDERYBindery, REPAIRRepair, ON SEARCH On Search and DAMAGED Damaged work order type that would serve to handle these old Millennium/Sierra item statuses.  Work Orders can also have individual item statuses in Alma.  You can combine multiple item statuses under one work order. 

Once you decide for every item status whether it will become a temporary location or a process type, and the items are in Alma with the temporary status "Technical Migration", you can move on to updating the items to the appropriate temporary location/process type.
