Thanks for your reply. You are right: "koha item type" don't map
material type, so if I want  advanced searching work I have to make
mandatory 200b that in unimarc is GMD. So I have to work on two field
(I've read it's better to keep 942c mandatory), and I'm searching for a
way to link the two field for choose GMD only one time: it's possible to
link two Unimarc fields?
