Missing 245

Lacks 245 $a or $k. These records are excluded from the Data Sync process.

No records should be at Level 1 because all records require at least 245 $a or $k.

The rule is processed first, and no further tests are made if the record meets the criteria. 

Records that are missing mandatory elements for reporting to OCLC, or have too few elements for us to confidently send them to OCLC are excluded from the Data Sync process. 

Record of any type that meets any of the conditions below, unless it has an OCLC number. If it has an OCLC number, it will be reported to OCLC regardless of elements ( unless it has a 914 "NoNO-Worldcat")WORLDCAT" field or it has an 011 field (an invalid field introduced if a non-English cataloging level record is brought in via Search Resources).
