Duplicate Column Headers in web client: Alert Msg and Alert Message

[Holly Brennan]

In the web client (pointed at 3.0.0) there are column choices of 'ALERT MSG' and 'ALERT MESSAGE' and they are NOT displaying the same information. When both are column choices (they aren't always), sometimes 'Alert Msg' has the alert (Checkin, Renew) and sometimes 'Alert Message' has the alert (Item Status). Here is what I've discovered about these two column choices in various locations in Evergreen:

Checkin: The 'Alert Msg' version is default, already listed in the columns, and displays the expected alert. 'Alert Message' is in the column picker list and can be added, but does NOT display an alert message.

Renew: Same as Checkin. The 'Alert Msg' version is default, already listed in the columns, and displays the expected alert. 'Alert Message' is in the column picker list and can be added, but does NOT display an alert message.

Check Out: 'Alert Msg' is default and displays the alert. 'Alert Message' is a choice in the column picker but does not display the alert.

Item Status: 'Alert Message' is the default. In this location it DOES show the alert message. 'Alert Msg' is NOT a choice in the column picker list.

The only constant I have come up with is that whichever column is the default (already there) works correctly to display the alert. But it's not as simple as one label working and the other not.

tested in 3.0.3 same behaviour as listed above

tested in 3.3.2 same behavior as above.

In Item Status there is also a column labeled "Status" that does not display anything (presumably duplicates Item Status?) and does not appear in the column picker list or manage columns.

See bug #1768978 for a related report, which doesn't mention "Alert Msg" as an option, so may be slightly different.

The Status column from Comment #2 is the "Status Icon Column", which shows if a copy has been edited and saved or not.

The grids have changed enough since this was initially reported that I'm going mark this Won't Fix. If there are still issues on specific bugs, please create fresh, shiny new bug reports.
