Hi Julian, 

another round of testing :)

1) Items created 'on order'

Items table 1: I like the changes you made for the labels 'Edit', 'Update' and
'Add' works nicely for me. The The item table has a lot more information and
shows correct descriptions for authorised values, branches an itemtypes.

Items table 2: Suggestion: Make the table so that it only shows columns that
were used for at least one item, like we do for the item forms in OPAC and
staff catalog.

Items table 3: Suggestion: Rename Stock number to 'Inventory number' to match
the English description in the frameworks.

Duplication check 1: Suggestion: I added duplicate barcodes and on saving the
order I got an error message. The message does not contain any information
about the field that contained the duplicate. It would be cool if it would show
the field and duplicate value. So when you created a lot of items, you know
where to look.

Duplication check 2: Suggestion: First time around I missed the message for the
duplicate barcode on top of the screen. Could we move that between the item
table and the item form? I think it make it more visible when you are working
with a lot of items and a longer item form.

UniqueItemFields 1: Suggestion: We are using | or commas for most system
preferences which require a list of values. This adds a new variant
'whitespace'. Not sure it's worth changing, but wanted to add a note. 

UniqueItemFields 2: OK :) I added stocknumber to the list of fields, because I
wanted to enforce duplicate detection. Entry was: 'barcode stocknumber'. I
created a new order line adding the same inventory number for 2 items. On
saving I got an error message for stocknumbers. When adding more than one item
the field is cleared each time. Works nicely.

Item creation 1: OK :) I checked items were created correctly for each of my
items. Works nicely.

Receiving items 1: Works nicely. Item form is not shown there (yet).

2) Items created 'on receive'

Items table 2 and Items table 3 suggestions also apply here.

Duplication check error message is more visible here, but could perhaps be
moved down too - not sure.

Item creation 2: The form does not allow to enter more items than were ordered.
I am not sure if this is a bug or 'by design'. I think it would cause no
problems for 'on receive' while it is problematic for 'on order'.

Receiving items 2: OK :) Items were created correctly and partial receive works
too.

Great work!
