The most commonly used ones are 440, indicating that the series title will need an added entry, and the 490, used for series statements where the title will not need an added entry.

This series statement uses the 490 field. This field is used when either the series title will not need an added entry (also called tracing), or when the added entry used may be slightly different than this version of the series. Here the indicator shown, ‘1’, means that the series will be traced differently.
