Which preset am I supposed to select when submitting a change request for instructions?

I assumed it was just the Catalog one.
However when submitting it tells me; "Item No to Change does not exist in
Catalog."
I am copy/pasting them Item No from the existing entry.

I've tried changing to Book rather than Catalog as well as attempting to
change the Item No by removing both the -1 and "Instructions Entry" Text.
I did not expect these to work and indeed they did not.

Looking at the Catalog Add or Change menu, there is an option for instructions
under Add Image but not under Change Item.

I just wanted to submit weight and dimensions for an instruction manual.
Perhaps I am missing something. But the guide just leads to the same Change Item
form, which is where I started.

  Yes but you didn't read sir.

Now we currently have for the same range

3068bp
and
3608pb

This is an error.

The error there is yours. You shouldn't be searching "3068bp*".
If you go look, nothing is named that. They just put the old numbers in as
alternates so people who were unaware of the change will be able to find things
labelled with the old numbers. You are aware of the change and should only be
searching "3068p*".

  If 3068b doesn't exist anymore ALL the 3068bp should change to 3068p

They did. You are finding the same pieces in both searches, except the "bp"
search will omit new ones going forward and also the peeron, LDraw, and I guess
Star Wars ones.

  But old tiles are under 3068bp.

Only in their alternate numbers.

  Do you understand now?

Yes

  What about ps?

ps was used for Star Wars parts in the very early days.

  This works only for OLD tiles.

Yes, it works for all the decorated tiles that had been created before the change
from 3068b to 3068.

  3068bp* finds SOME result of the 3068p* but not ALL THE results.

Instead, it should return nothing.

The search is broken, not the inventory

The search is fine, it is searching alternate numbers. So those 3068p- that have
a 3068bp- alternate number will be returned on a search for 3068bp*

This works only for OLD tiles.

So if you look for the 3068bp* in your inventory, only some will spawn.
This is wrong.
