Hello Koha and LibLime folks,<br>We demonstrated PTFS Harley 1.1 to our member libraries today and they were anxious about how they will find the correct item to pull for transfer from the holds queue report. <br><br>A bit of background, we currently use an older version of the holds queue that we maintain by editing our templates (currently on Koha 3.01.00.037, not LEK). It shows the brief title and a specific barcode for each item to be pulled and transferred to fill a hold. In Harley, we are given a brief title and no barcode, just the note "Any available copy." I'm looking for feedback from those of you on a system that uses a holds queue report similar to the one in Harley (we have independent branches OFF). The default holds queue in 3.2 is identical to Harley.<br>
<br>How do you use the holds queue report to find the correct item to fill the hold on titles such as Naruto, Go Diego Go or YuYu Hakusho that have the same 245 $a titles, but unique $p (parts) $n (numbers) or $b (subtitles)? I could see problems with TV series on DVD, such as Weeds or True Blood, as well. <br>
<br>Just in case there's confusion - our current holds queue looks like this: <a href="http://screencast.com/t/NzljNTg2ZjMt" target="_blank">http://screencast.com/t/NzljNTg2ZjMt</a><br>and we will be changing to this: <a href="http://screencast.com/t/NDUzNjk5Yj" target="_blank">http://screencast.com/t/NDUzNjk5Yj</a><br>
