Citation error in the Source Template Field Definition
Posted: 20 Mar 2022 17:27
I am having a problem designing a custom source template that uses the Citation-specific tick box option in the Source Definition Editor. For some reason, I am only able to assign some of the fields to be citation specific. For the others, It returns an error message when I try to save it, that reads:
"Errors found in templates.
Bibliography Errors: Citation field code not valid in this context: Principal_2".
If I then un-check the Citation-specific check-box, it saves without a problem. This happens for 7 different records (6 of the records are fine with the check-box checked).
Does anyone know why this happens and how do I resolve this issue?
Problem Area:
Btw; there is a work-around by changing them to citation specific using the Source Template property box, but that option is Project specific and has to be changed each time I change projects!
