  2. Press Add a new Vloitem
  3. Start editing the new Vloitem
  4. Select the correct XML file from the File line
  5. Save the item
  6. A button Import should have appeared
    1. If not, press F5 to refresh the screen
    2. press it to upload the XML into the Collbank database
    3. Optional: press F5 one more time, to possibly have an automatically harvested title appear
  7. A button Register should have appeared
    1. Press it in order to get a PID for this XML file
  8. A button Publish should have appeared
    1. Press it in order to make the (adapted) XML file available on the Applejack registry page (i.e. https://cls.ru.nl/registry)

All is done
