Description Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2024-08-06 18:50:34 UTC
To recreate:
1 - Find a patron record in Koha in a category
2 - Create a new patron using the surname and firstname of the above patron
3 - Add a guarantor (be careful to choose a patron in a category that cannot be a guarantee, see bug 37584)
4 - Save
5 - Get a duplicate patron warning
6 - Note the guarantor information is not visible
7 - Save, confirm no guarantor set

Just adding a comment to say it would be helpful to have this bug fixed! School children in our area are issued an e-library card through their schools so most of the kiddos we make physical library accounts for, get this duplicate error that then drops the guarantor information.
