[Koha] problem with bulk imported data

[John Palmer]

I concur with Elaine Bradke, However, I've found that using the field 952$y
for Koha item types (as defined in System Administration → Item types and
Circulation Codes. e.g. BK for Books) is successful on bulk imports. I've
not had success changing any of the 942 field directly using a bulk import.

This is a helpful reference page for creating your bulk import source data:
