Defect Status

Issue VYG-6486 is resolved for Voyager 9.2.0 and higher.

Replication Steps

1. Acquisitions > Identify a purchase order where line item has vendor reference number and ready to be updated via Bulk Import.
2. Create a bulk import rule such to
2.a. match bib associated with PO
2.b. match and map to mfhd location associated with line item intended location
2.c. match vendor reference number associated with line item
3. Import record with rule.
4. Review log; note that vendor number not matched, though the field/subfield combination contains the number.
5. Move the field to be the first instance of that tag in the record, and save the change.
6. Import the updated record.
7. Review the log; note that the vendor number was identified and matched to the PO, and the item record created/updated.
