In the patron import tool, the Notes area includes this comment: 

'The fields 'branchcode' and 'categorycode' are required and must match valid
entries in your database.'

I didn't include surname in an upload, and received this error: "Line 2
Critical field "surname" missing", but that field isn't listed in the Notes
area. 

Should the surname also be listed in the notes area as a required field be or
is this a bug and the surname shouldn't be required in an upload? 

I wondered if the patron import tool might be also be using the fields in our
BorrowerMandatoryField sys pref, which includes the
dateofbirth|surname|cardnumber|firstname fields, but in the next upload test, I
only included branchcode, categorycode, cardnumber, and surname fields in the
upload, and the file uploaded successfully.
