Bug Description
In AngularJS, the holdings editor included a section for "working barcodes" that allowed copy catalogers to select individuals barcodes to have certain attributes applied without applying those attributes to all items opened in the holdings editor. The angular holdings editor has removed this section and functionality. This has significantly impacted workflows for many of our high volume tech service departments in a detrimental way.

Our catalogers really dislike the whole Working Barcodes thing, which they rarely have occasion to use. Most of our libraries are mostly single sites, not library systems, with just a few libraries having a couple of branches, so catalogers rarely have situations where they are adding large numbers of items requiring different attributes, so they just want to add their items and click on Save. In situations where they have two items of a title to add to the Adult Nonfiction collection and one to add the Parentling collection, they just add the Adult Nonfiction items, apply a template, and save, and then add the Parenting on add template and save.
I can understand why the working barcodes option might be useful for others, but hope if it comes back to the holdings editor that it's as an option that we can turn off.
