Overview:

While staff were working in Poppy they found that some item records could not be moved between holdings, this led us to submit a ticket with FSE who informed us the root cause was this JIRA: https://folio-org.atlassian.net/browse/MODINVSTOR-1094 .

After informing the support group Jeen did some investigation and found that when locations are changed in Bulk edit the permanentLocation location field ie being written to.

I spoke with Magda about this and she indicated that Bulk edit is just using the APIs available via Inventory to perform these actions, so this issue may be with the Poppy Inventory APIs.
