            Bug ID: 16503
           Summary: Label creator: grouping fields with quotes does not
                    work in layout creator
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: 3.22
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Label/patron card printing

The description for "Data field" under label-edit-layout.pl shows

"Enter a comma separated list of fields to print. You may include any Koha
field or MARC subfield.

See online help for advanced options

ex: barcode, itemcallnumber, title, "050a 050b", 300a

Fields homebranch_description, holdingbranch_description, ccode_description,
location_description and permanent_location_description show description
instead of code."

This seems to indicate that grouping fields using quotes, non-comma separated,
*should* work:

Given an item with the following data:

         title: Juggling for the complete klutz /
        author: Cassidy, John.
itemcallnumber: JNF 793.8 Cas

Using the data fields 

"title author", itemcallnumber

Should yield a CSV export this:

"Juggling for the complete klutz / Cassidy, John.","JNF 793.8 Cas"

Instead I get this:

,"JNF 793.8 Cas"


To replicate:

1/ Create a record using the title, author and itemcallnumber above.
2/ Go to tools > label creator
3/ Add a batch containing the created item
4/ Add a new layout. Click the list fields radio button, and add the fields
title, author, itemcallnumber
5/ Export the batch as CSV using the new layout. The resulting file will look
like this:

   "Juggling for the complete klutz /","Cassidy, John.","JNF 793.8 Cas"

6/ Edit the layout, change the field list to

    "title author", itemcallnumber

7/ Export the batch again, the new CSV file will read

    ,"JNF 793.8 Cas"

The bug was replicated under version 3.23.
