Jane,
Look a little further down the patron screen and uncheck the phone box. This 
removes the yellow shading on Default Phone field so that info no longer 
required

Subject: [Evergreen-general] "Default phone" required field in the patron edit 
screen

Hi Evergreeners,

We just upgraded from 3.4 to 3.7, and are running into bug 
1901726<https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1901726>.  Basically, when we 
go to edit any of our patrons, there is a field called "Default phone number", 
which is now required.  It's almost always empty, meaning we can't save the 
form until we fiddle with it.

It's frustrating that we have to fiddle with this field before making any 
changes to patron records.  Are there any workarounds that your libraries are 
using to reduce this frustration?

  -Jane
