--- Comment #19 from Esther Melander <esther.melander at bywatersolutions.com> ---
I would sign-off because the test plan works. This is an exciting enhancement
but there were a few things I noticed that may be worth discussion first.

The test plan works through step 11 and an item is created. The item created
defaulted to the 952$y item type Book, even though only the 952$a is in the
action. That may not always be the correct item type, though it is probably
better for something to be assigned than nothing.

Then I created a template with actions to add the 952$a and other subfields
including adding the item type 952$y as configured. The items were created
correctly.

I duplicated the previous template and removed the action to include the 952$a.
Items were created with no error message. I tested removing other subfields and
items were created.

The test plan implies the 952$a is required to create an item, but I was able
to create an item with only the 952$8. The caveat is the item defaulted to the
Book item type for the 952$y again.

If the item type is required, as it is added regardless, how can the user be
alerted so they can select the correct item type before the items are added.
