Definition

Contains the CODEN designation assigned to a periodical title by the Chemical Abstracts Service. Each CODEN consists of four mnemonic letters and a fifth letter, A, B, C, or D. The sixth character, a check character, is alphabetic or numeric.

Validation

 

The sixth character of a CODEN is a calculated check character, either numeric, 2–9, or alphabetic, A–Z. It is used to identify and eliminate typographical errors.

When you validate a record containing field 030, the system checks the CODEN in subfield ‡a to verify that the content and length are correct and that the check character matches the calculated check character.

If there is an error in the CODEN (e.g., the CODEN is too long or too short, has an incorrect character in any position or incorrect value in the check digit), the system displays an error message with the CODEN remaining in subfield ‡a. If you made a typographical error, correct the CODEN and validate the record again. If the error message appears again and you transcribed the CODEN exactly, the CODEN is in error. Put the CODEN in subfield ‡z
