Hi All,<br>
<br>
We're running into a problem on 3.00.05 with the case of our
branchcodes. We have configured our branches with codes like 'LO' or
'ES'. We imported all of our items against those codes, and
everything looked good. School just stated, and we just began
circulating, and have discovered that when items are checked in,
items.holdingbranch is being populated with lowercase variants of
those branchcodes ('lo' or 'es'). This causes the interface in many
places to claim there's no current branch, even preventing check-out
of that item.<br>
<br>
The obvious fix would be to simply set branchcode to
LOWER(branchcode) in the back end, but the foreign key constraint
prevents me from doing so through mysql. <br>
<br>
I'm fixing this temporarily by running UPDATEs against items setting
holdingbranch=UPPER(holdingbranch), but this is a kludge. <br>
<br>
Any suggestions?<br>
