Bug ID: 39972
Summary: Blank bib heading fields link to unrelated authority
records
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: 24.11
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Cataloging

If you save a bib record with a heading field (1xx, 6xx, etc.) containing a
blank subfield a or other subfields but no subfield a, Koha incorrectly links
the field to an authority record. It's not a blank authority, but a proper
authority record of the same type (personal, topical etc.) but a nonmatching
heading. It seems to target the same records each time, so in my system a blank
personal name field (100, 600, etc.) always links to authority ID #1, for the
Achaemenid dynasty. A blank X10 links to authority #48, for the Catholic
Church, and so on.
The situations described are cataloging errors in the bib record and so
unwelcome, but they should not automatically link to valid but unrelated
authorities. They should remain unlinked.
