Ok, I believe that the updates new workflow will be great.

However, till today, in my system always I go through the validation process everytime. I could show this issue via skype sharing screen or by sending you my database.

Hi,
The current program flow is as mentioned below
When you are saving or modifying a catalogue record the system picks up all the authority data and matches it against the entries in the database. If the system matches an exact entry in the database then it does not ask for any interaction. However if it finds a slight change then the list of entries are shown and user action(Create new or select existing) is necessary.
Hence whether you edit authority data or not, validation process occurs on all authority data. However as discussed, the newer updates will filter out authority data that are not edited

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?
