Description Aude Charillon 2025-07-31 12:42:27 UTC
When creating an attribute in a processing, you can select the attribute type as a database column. This is great, as you can then select fields from the biblio, biblioitems or items table to be displayed in the train's table of items.

I noticed that for fields linked to authorised values - Damaged status, Withdrawn, Collection, etc. - what displays in the train's table of items is the value, e.g. '4'. It would be more useful for the description to be displayed, as it is elsewhere in Koha.
