[Koha] Problem with entering Personall Name

[eva arenander]

I would rather recommend you to change the catalogue framework you are using in "MARC subfield structure admin for 100" choose edit for subfiled a, and click at "display more constraints". There you have a Thesaurus set to PERSO_NAME under Other options. If you leave that option blank you should be able to type in the field.

This sounds like a FAQ:

Question: Why can't I edit 1xx, 6xx, or 7xx fields in my catalog record?

Answer:
These fields are authority controlled and you probably have the BiblioAddsAuthorities set to 'allow'. When it is set to 'don't allow'
these fields will be locked and require you to search for an existing authority record.
