OK ... it's a bit more complicated than I originally thought... it's true that
without an itemtype the item isn't displayed, but the problem runs deeper that I
thought. I also have a proposed solution that needs to be investigated before
implemented. Currently, we have a new sub 'getissues' that seems to be the
culprit. It finds the timestamp for the item and then circulation.pl uses that
timestamp to determine the date the item was issues. This is problematic for at
least one reason: when you're migrating data into Koha you don't have control
over the timestamp: you just take what mysql gives you. A better solution is to
use the lastreneweddate or some other field that we can control. Does this make
sense? Is lastreneweddate updated on first issue?
