I see...very strange. It happens even when I don't have multiple subject entries.
I didn't have idea that this was the expected procedure. I always have to validate. Maybe the verus support team could enlight us?

Yes. That's supposedly what should be the usual experience. When I select a record and click modify from the search module and then immediately click the modify button without changing anything, then a window will pop up with a list of things to validate. I just click "Validate" and then it should just go straight to the Holdings window without asking me to create a new record or select an entry below.
I don't know why it doesn't happen to you, but perhaps you have multiple subject entries with the exact same text? e.g., 2 authority files with heading "Recycling." and your record also has "Recycling." If this is the case, then maybe the application doesn't know where exactly your record's "Recycling." should go so it is asking you?
With great knowledge comes great responsibility.
