[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Small cataloging issue with displaying corporate names in MARC editor (EG master)

[Yamil Suarez]

Hello,

In EG master, assume I have a bib record open that contains either a  
110 and/or 710 corporate name tags. If I right click either tag to  
find/create a new linked authority record for that tag, the preview  
list of existing authorities does not seem to display any existing  
authorities that are corporate names, aka containing the 110 tag. The  
preview list within the authority context menu seems to only contain  
our remaining authority tags (with the 100 field).

For example, if I use a bib record for a U2 album. If I right click on  
this bib's 110 tag for the U2 corporate name, I get a context menu  
with a list of potential existing authority records that match the  
term "u2". In this preview list, I do not see an entry for U2 in the  
preview list, even though I already have a (corporate name) authority  
record for U2 in my test system. The same problem repeats if I right  
click on the 710 tag for their record company corporate name, in this  
case "Island Records".  This happens despite that I already have a  
(corporate name) authority record for Island Records in my test  
system. Also, I tried temporarily changing a 110 corporate authority  
record tag value to a 100, and then the edited authority record  
started to show up.

Btw, this authority preview list issue does not seem to occur in EG  
2.1 release.

I am in the middle of testing some custom features in master,  
therefore I cannot run rel 2.1. Please let me know if you guys/gals  
have any ideas on how this could be fixed in master at some point.

Thanks in advance,
Yamil
