Bug Description
Web Client 3.0+
The specific regularity information in pattern wizard includes a section for setting combined issues. In the web client this combined issue entry requires a code to be entered -- i.e., to indicate that July & August are combined issues, you'd enter 07/08 in the "combined issue code" box. This information is available in the MFHD standard (https:/
Recommend to create some helper mechanism for this to either link to the standard or otherwise make the entry conventions for this field clearer.

There is still no helper or anything which tells you how to create these combined issue entries in a pattern.
It is even LESS intuitive, because if the title is bimonthly, but the issues are labeled Jan./Feb., Mar./Apr., etc., instead of Jan., Mar., etc., you must choose the "Number of issues per year" at the top as monthly, not bimonthly, and then put in the combined issue codes of 01/02, 03/04, etc. If you choose bimonthly, because that is what it is, you'll get unusable results from the pattern.
