2014-04-03 Thread Nicole Engard
If I delete a framework that is being used what will happen if I go to
edit one of those bib records? Will it just use Default?

I would expect this:

  * Cataloguer opens bib record for editing, selects framework X
  * Edit page populates according to the framework
  * You modify framework X
  * Cataloguer saves record
  * Record saves in accordance with the updated framework, using the
data from the non-updated framework.

It probably wouldn't cause any issues, but if you deleted a field, that
info would most likely vanish. If a field is made mandatory, it might
reject the save in a confusing way (I'm not sure if mandatoryness is
enforced outside of the web interface, and if it is, what it does on
failure.)

For the most part, it'd be very similar to updating a framework, opening
an old record, hitting save.

Note that I haven't tested this nor read that code recently, but it's
what makes sense in my head :)

[Koha 3.8.5] I can confirm that it only appears to have an influence when 
re-saving a biblio. We made 300$3 mandatory for 'books' (but not default) 
and all the biblios in the default framework (some marc-edit imports and 
other mistakes) work perfectly except the missing value is highlighted 
in yellow on re-save.


Minor point on the side: the yellow highlight works well for 'biblios' 
but fails for 'items' despite a pop-up asking for the yellow value to be 
entered.  Anyone else noticed/fixed this?
