[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] 852 broken in 1.6 Staff Client Batch Import too ? Stuck with 2.0 alpha4 Staff Client importing 852 Item Information

[Repke de Vries]

Any help appreciated!

Did additional testing in 1.6.0.1 and  what used to work for us in  
that version a number of months back , doesn't anymore.

Here is an an example [1]: BroGroepCanadaBR1Combi.mrc  in http:// 
www.xs4all.nl/~repke/Evergreen/
adopted for out-of-the-box Evergreen

And these are the steps in the Staff Client:
1) Cataloging -> MARC Batch Import/Export
2) create an upload queue;  mark "auto import non-colliding records',  
mark "import attached holdings";  choose "file to upload"
3) click Upload: the record gets imported
4) search the catalog for the record

Copy information should be shown now for BR1 but it doesn't anymore  
in 1.6.0.1 and neither does it in 2.0 alpha4. The latter could be  
caused by  additional MARC Batch Importer / Exporter settings that we  
maybe don't understand yet (see below).

Can anyone reproduce the situation or in anyway help with the right  
additional settings in 2.0 for MARC Batch Importer / Exporter?

Especially for quick tests, the Importer is very convenient.

Thanks a lot, Repke, IISH
