[Koha] Restrictions on 9XX Fields

[Charles Kelley]

Hi, Caroline

    This is good to hear. Thanks for the confirmation, and the suggestion
of the additional MARC tag fields. They may be a better solution.

MarcFieldForCreatorId, MarcFieldForCreatorName, MarcFieldForModifierId and
MarcFieldForModifierName? You can enter your local 9XX fields in there.

    Quoting my question of 2 Mch. 2020, 12:29, to wit:

records. I already know Koha does keep track of changes, for when I click
on "Modification Logs", I see a rich history.

mine: rededicated a 9XX field to log a brief synopsis of the changes we
made. Mostly just the cataloger's name or initials, timestamp, and a few
words, e.g.,

> 949  \\ $a Kelley, Charles. $b 2020-02-28 $c Added subject field. $c
Romanized Cyrillic title.
> 949  \\ $a Sloshkin, Victoria. $b 2020-02-29 $c Added editor [700]. $c
Added series title.
> 949  \\ $a Watanabe, Junko. $b 2020-02-30 $c Fixed title indicators.
> 949  \\ $a Watanabe, Junko. $b 2020-02-31 $c OK.
