--- Comment #3 from Andrew Fuerste-Henry <andrewfh at dubcolib.org> ---
At step 20 in the test plan I'm not getting an item created as described. I
have deleted the item with barcode 39999000004090, but when I stage the batch
set to match on biblionumber and replace items I don't get a new item created
on import. The import_items table gives the error "duplicate item barcode" even
though that barcode is in deleteditems and doesn't bring anything up in
searches.

Also, the behavior at steps 16/17 seems wrong to me. The incoming MARC has this
item on one bib, Koha has it on another. To my mind, that suggests there's some
fundamental confusion that should be sorted out manually. With this patch as
written, the import and overlay edits an item on a bib that's not indicated in
any way when looking at the batch, which seems like a good way miss errors in
your import batch and to introduce unexpected item edits to your catalog. The
item action choice is "Replace items when a matching bib is found." This is
replacing an item on a non-matching bib.
