Please have an eye on the creator roles

We would like to draw your attention to a certain dysfunction that affects the submission within the current PubMan version.

Please note that currently, the creator role of all persons is automatically set to „Author“ when saving/submitting/releasing an item. For organizations the creator role is set to „Editor“.
This problem affects both, the publication creator(s) and the source creator(s).

So please be aware that you might unintentionally change the metadata of an existing item when you perform any changes.
For newly created items you just don’t have the option to select any other creator role than the ones mentioned above.

We are aware that this is an urgent issue and we are planning to take care of it in connection with the next Bugfix release.
