[Koha] call number sort problem

[Margo Duncan]

We have the default classification source set to Library of Congress.  The problem appears to be two different encoding methods.

hie,

items.cn_sort calculation depends on items.cn_source value, if no value, the default classification source is used (defined in syspref "DefaultClassificationSource").

The other way is with _ so HD30.19 is HD_0030_19.  This has the result of sorting the call numbers into two separate batches within a single report.  It doesn't matter what the method of sorting call numbers is (as long as it works) but we need it to be consistent.  So can I adjust the sorting method, or is there something wrong with my data?  And if there's something wrong with my data, what do I need to adjust to have the the call numbers sort correctly?
