Add Description Field and Generate Button to ENUM/CHRON Tab in Item Record
It would be helpful to have the description field and generate button on the ENUM/CHRON tab in the item record. If someone is utilizing multiple enum/chron fields, beyond what's available in the General tab, they have to switch tabs to edit those fields and then switch back to generate the description (manually or through description templates and the generate button).
Alternatively, more enum/chron fields could be made available on the general tab. Possibilities include:
an expandable enum/chron section which by default shows only the first 2 of each (like what is currently available);
a customizable option that would allow institutions (or users) to modify the fields they see in their item records tabs;
adding even just 1 or 2 more fields of enum/chron each could help streamline things.

My colleagues very much want Enum C and D moved from the 'Enum/Chron' tab to the 'General' tab to avoid moving back and forth repeatedly. Maybe make these tabs configurable to suit local use.

Also agree. It's a nuisance to not include all of the enum/chon fields in the Receive Items screen too. We have to create the item and then go into Physical Item Editor to add the additional enum/chron information and generate the Description Field. It would be preferrable to avoid having to switch screens to do this

I agree, especially the part about adding more enum/chron fields to the General tab. An expandable enum/chron section would be immensely helpful.
