Purpose:MARC_FNAME is the primary argument for an XML Import validation that isolates the given name of a full name that is given in RDA format e.g:

Family Name, Given Name(s), Dates/Title etc

For instance if the incoming data was Joyce, James the word James would be isolated for importing to the destination field (probably FIRST_NAMES).

This validation works in conjunction with MARC_LNAME, which works on the same initial data, isolating the family name.

Argument Structure: Enter MARC_FNAME as the validation. There are no further arguments.
