Some examples of situations where you would use Advanced mode are:

1. If a serial title has fewer than two levels of enumeration (vol.) or more than two levels of enumeration (v., no., pt.)
2. If it has only a cover date and no enumeration
3. If you want the chronology captions to display (rarely used)
4. If you want to change the captions for the enumeration levels from "v." and/or "no." to another language.
5. If the enumeration is alphabetical or uses Roman numerals

The elements of the top section of the Create Card dialog box are identical to those in Simple mode. Only the bottom sections differ:

On the lower left side in the Cover/Expected dates section you have additional levels of Chronology captions. If you check the box the "caption" will show with the cover date in each box.

On the upper right side in the Enumeration section the Number of levels dropdown box allows you to choose from 0 to 6 levels. You can also change the enumeration "mode" from Numeric to Alpha or Roman. When setting up Roman numerals or alphabetical enumeration, the "starting numbers" are always entered as numbers - not Roman numerals or letters (e.g. "XXIV" would be entered as 14, the letter "A" would be entered as "1")

Note: For enumerations that contain more than one type of enumeration (e.g. v.2C) create two levels of enumeration -- one for the numeric and one for the alpha. You can uncheck the box for the second level "caption" to make it display as in the example.

Also on the right side at the bottom is the Alternate Enumeration section. Alternate enumerations are for titles that have a second alternate numbering scheme. Alternate enumeration can have one or two levels. An example would be Hispania : revista espaņola de historia which could be numbered v.12 no.1 and also no.336

USING ROMAN NUMERALS:

Our first example demonstrates creating a card for a title that has two levels of enumeration, but cannot use Simple mode because the levels use Roman numerals. Our card will start with the February 2007 issue.

Title using Roman numerals for enumeration.
