Text to go in the release notes:
When an item does not have an itemtype and the record (biblioitem) also has no itemtype defined the data inconsistencies script would error rather than reporting. We add a test for missing record level itemtypes so that we can correctly report these problems too.
Version(s) released in:
20.11.00, 20.05.01

Description Nick Clemens 2018-10-17 19:56:10 UTC
bug 21150 added a script to check for missing item level itemtypes - it doesn't like when both the item and the record are missing itemtype

Bug 21591: Check for record level item type issues too

To test:
1 - sudo koha-mysql kohadev
2 - UPDATE biblioitems SET itemtype = NULL where biblionumber = 1
3 - UPDATE items SET itype = NULL where biblionumber = 1
4 - perl misc/maintenance/search_for_data_inconsistencies.pl
5 - Notice warnings
6 - Apply patch
7 - Undefined itemtype on bibliolevel is now warned
Comment 2 Jonathan Druart 2018-10-17 20:23:04 UTC
What about NULL vs ''?

I think we should alert if '', do not you think?
Comment 3 Katrin Fischer 2018-10-28 18:37:19 UTC
Could we make the warn on missing biblio-level optional? 

For us it's normal that there is only an itemtype on item level. We are aware it can be an issue, but it's currently not possible to change it easily because of our union catalog model.
Comment 4 Jonathan Druart 2019-03-05 19:14:44 UTC
IMO we should not hide/skip something in this script. We display possible issues, if you are aware of them you can just ignore it.

Is that change correct?

Notes from testing:

Warnings before patch applied
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

== Items do not have itype defined ==
Use of uninitialized value in sprintf at misc/maintenancesearch_for_data_inconsistencies.pl line 61.
	* Item with itemnumber=1 does not have a itype value, biblio's item type will be used ()
=> The system preference item-level_itypes expects item types to be defined at item level

Warning after patch applied (also tested itype=""):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

== Items do not have itype defined ==
 * Item with itemnumber=1 does not have a itype value, additionally no item type defined for biblionumber=1
=> The system preference item-level_itypes expects item types to be defined at item level

I do not think we need that change. @itemtypes contains the values from the itemtypes table.

I see what I did here, I add the check for "" to the check for 'Items do not have itype defined'

I considered a blank string to be 'unset' and so report in that section rather than in 'invalid' section
