            Bug ID: 38535
           Summary: Edit record page displays item type even when
                    biblioitems.itemtype is NULL
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: 22.11
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Staff interface
          Assignee: [email protected]

This behavior was revealed due to a misconfiguration of Koha to MARC mappings,
in which 942$c was associated with items.itype. For any record edited after the
change, the value of biblioitems.itemtype was changed to NULL. The issue came
to our attention when staff noticed that records' details display pages showed
neither the item type image nor the item type description. However, the edit
record page (somehow) continued to display its correct item type. Updating the
item type on this page, despite an apparently successful save action, did not
change the value of biblioitems.itemtype; it remained NULL. The behavior caused
much confusion among the staff until the error was traced back to the
misconfiguration. An UPDATE action on biblioitems.itemtype could restore the
correct value, but a subsequent edit of the record would return the value to
NULL. Correcting the Koha to MARC mapping restored proper function.

Thanks for reading!
