Description Kelly McElligott 2024-02-09 16:07:31 UTC
With the new system preference ChildNeedsGuarantor, brought into Koha by bug 12133. It seems important to add the Guarantor field as mandatory, if the system preference, ChildNeedsGuarantor, is set to Must have Guarantor.  At this time, if this sys pref is turned on to Must have guarantor, a new child patron can be created in Koha and only when attempting to save the form (without the guarantor), does it give an error. I think we should follow the same standards we have for all other required fields.
