           Summary: warning on authorized values confusing
        QA Contact: koha.sekjal at gmail.com
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: nengard at gmail.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: master
         Component: System Administration
           Product: Koha

On the authorized values admin page it says:

"NOTE: If you change an authorized value, existing records using it won't be
updated."

This is confusing because some people are thinking that this means if you edit
the description it won't update the records.  When in reality it means if you
change the VALUE it won't update things.

Maybe this could be made clearer by saying:

"NOTE: If you change an authorized value, existing records using it won't be
updated. Changes to value descriptions will show immediately"

I'm not sure that's clear either, but I can't come up with another way to make
this not confuse people so I'm open to ideas.
