> P.S. It doesn't always seem like it's 100% 1 to 1, either. For example, to print the item's barcode on the pull list, the variable is cp_barcode, but in Server Preferences, it's listed as current_item, which doesn't work in the template. Still SO much better than what I had an hour ago.

Yeah, some of these are a little special, and maybe redundant, though
I'm surprised that this one doesn't work in the template. That might
be true with any columns which rely on "cellTextGenerator" in the
code. current_item maps to cp_barcode using such a generator function,
and if unset, it just displays an empty string. status_string would be
an interesting one to check; it looks at hold_status (which should be
a numerical code), and maps it to human language, like Waiting for
Item.
