* This functionality can be used in the Cataloging module when creating items and in the Acquisitions module when adding a subscription.
* There are ExpandField's for both the Item Form "Call No." and "Second Call No." fields (and in the Serials module > Subscription Form).
* This can only be done if the holdings record is NOT used for control of the call number.
