vxws:missing ISBN and ISSN in web service "SearchService"

• Article Type: General
• Product: Voyager
• Product Version: 8.2.0

Description:
Issue number: 16384-19073
Module: vxws
Server platform affected: Solaris

Releases replicated in: 8.1.1-8.1.2
Last version without bug: 8.1.0

Expected results:
SearchService should include ISBN and ISSN in results.

Actual results:
ISBN and ISSN are returned as <sear:isbn xsi:nil="true"/> and <sear:issn xsi:nil="true"/> for all records, no matter if the ISBN and ISSN are in the records or not.

Workflow implications: Anything that uses this service to pull the ISBN or ISSN does not work correctly.

Replication steps:
From this example URL: http://10.100.3.44:10014/vxws/SearchService?searchCode=CALL&searchArg=PS21&browseFlag=Y
