Yes, it may need to be configurable for libraries. My example library uses
authorized values that categorize the type of acquisition. For example, the
values are Donation, Replacement, Budget, etc. So in this case, the authorized
values are being used for unique information and not vendor names.

Either that, or the ability to assign authorized values to this field needs to
be disabled since the field is used in unique ways.

Documentation on how this field is used in Koha would also be helpful. :)

Maybe this could be made configurable, but it's always been like that (since
around 3.2 at least) and I believe we have reports etc. relying on this
information, also the display does in some places. We can only display a
reliable link to the vendor using the ID, as a name might change. 

If there is an authorised value, unknown values should now be handled without
data loss I believe at least.

I had also filed a report to have a value builder that allows to search
vendors:
bug 29258
Maybe this could be an alternative to the AV?

I observed this on 24.05.

This causes a problem if a library has created authorized values for that
field. The insertion of the vendor ID then appears as not an authorized value
and looks like an error.

The vendor ID is inserted in the 952$e of the add/edit Item Form and not the
Vendor name. Even though the ID is meant to link to the Vendor name for display
in the Item Detail and the Acquisitions tab of the holdings table, it is not
useful in the add/edit Item form. IOW, the number doesn't mean anything unless
one knows what the number represents. One has to know to look at the URL on the
Vendor detail page to identify the Vendor ID because it is not displayed
anywhere else.

So there is a potential conflict if the 952$e has been configured to use
authorized values. And the display of the Vendor ID versus the Vendor Name in
the add/edit Item form is confusing.

I believe that is the expected behavior. It creates the link between the vendor
and the item. If you look at the holdings table in 24.11 on the details page,
it will show a column showing the vendor name built from that information.
