Description Katrin Fischer 2022-10-19 07:19:36 UTC
There was some confusion recently about what 'searchable' meant for patron attributes. I think it would help if we added a note to the  DefaultPatronSearchFields system preference description. Patron attributes marked searchable can always be searched for within the "Standard" search option.

See also test plan on bug 30576 for reference.
