[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Edit Item From OPAC View In Staff Client Not Working

Hello.  We are testing 2.12.3 and have noticed a problem.

If we search for an item in the catalog in the staff client and then 
click the 'edit' link that shows up next to the barcode (comes from 
templates/opac/parts/record/copy_table.tt2), it brings it up in the copy 
editor.

We make our changes (something simple such as changing circ mod) in the 
copy editor and then click the Re-barcode/Update Items button and we get 
an error that says "error with item update: An item with the same 
barcode exists".


If we pull up the same item in the copy editor a different way (not from 
edit link in OPAC view) such as going to Holdings Maintenance under 
Actions for this Record and then double clicking the record, we can make 
changes to it and everything works fine with no errors when we click 
Re-barcode/Update Items.


The screens are the same from everything we can see.  The same function, 
xulG.volume_item_creator() is called in both places in the code (looks 
to me like the arguments are different in the copy_table.tt2 call 
though?).  We are at a loss as to what the problem could be.  It works 
fine in our 2.9 system.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be going on here?  Thanks!
