<p class=MsoNormal>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>My library is planning an inventory in about a month, and I
was glad to see that Koha has an easy-to-use inventory tool. However,
when I tried to generate a shelflist, the call numbers are not in order.
They are ordered the way a computer would do it but not the way LC works.
(i.e., The call numbers were BF1028, BF1029, BF103. The computer put them
in this order by looking at the B, then the F, then the 1, etc. LC would
order them BF103, BF1028, BF1029, looking at the numbers as one hundred three
and one thousand twenty-eight.)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Obviously, we can’t use the inventory tool if the
numbers are ordered this way. I was wondering if there are any plans to
fix this, since it seems more like a bug-fix than an enhancement.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
