Voucher Procedure Schema
This describes the information model for the voucher procedure. The voucher procedure will be based upon (i.e., a domain extension of) the existing CollectionSpace Loans Out Schema. The table below lists the fields of information, named to reflect the Botanical Garden perspective. A column indicates whether this is mapped to an existing Loans Out schema field, or is a new field in the domain extension schema.
To class: You probably do not need to make anything Group Repeatable (used when there is a block of info that repeats), but may have a few things Field Repeatable (e.g., perhaps the sheet number).
