Description Owen Leonard 2014-11-20 16:12:29 UTC
I noticed this problem when testing Bug 13297:

If you have NewItemsDefaultLocation turned on (set to use the "PROC" authorized value for instance), and you add a new item to a record through the cataloging interface but you *don't* select a shelving location, both items.location and items.permanent_location will be filled with "PROC." This is incorrect. Only items.location should be filled.

If items.permanent_location is also "PROC," then checking in the item will not trigger removal of the "PROC" value as it should.

Could not reproduce on master, is this problem still existing ?
Comment 2 Fridolin Somers 2017-06-13 09:37:14 UTC
I can't also reproduce the bug.
items.location gets PROC and items.permanent_location is NULL.

You used /cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/additem.pl ?

this works for me, items.location is set empty.
