[Evergreen-catalogers] Testing batch editing call numbers

[Janet Schrader]

Hi Kathy,

We just added all the omnibus cataloging bug fixes and are now experiencing
the problem of not being able to add two copies at the same time. Only the
first one is saved. Did this get reported as a bug or is there something
I'm missing?



Thanks,
Janet
