Stock-take/Inventory in KOHA
by Kerrie Stevens 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

Hi Everyone, We have recently completed our first stock-take since moving across to KOHA. We are quite shocked at the apparent under-development of the inventory area. What are other libraries experiences like within this area? Do other libraries even use the stock-take feature? Things we thought should be standard and automatic, were either not standard and required additional, costly reports to be written, or were available but in such a round-about way that the process was tiresome. We believe stock-take is very important and should be a major feature within KOHA. Some things we were surprised were not included are: 1. Items on loan were listed as missing, not on loan 2. Collection can't be specified (ie: specific call number range or collection (eg: DVDs or reference) selected to be stock-taked) meaning the entire collection had to be scanned 3. Items not scanned should be automatically marked as missing but we had to run a report to identify them and then do a batch item modification 4. Previously missing items now found should be automatically marked as found but we had to run a report to identify them and then do a batch item modification These things, to me, seem like they should be standard within any stock-take module. Have we missed something or are there other libraries with these types of experiences in stock-takes as well? We were using the first option of stock-take where we loaded a barcode txt file into KOHA. We have KOHA version 3.10.04 on a Linux server with Zebra 2.0.44. Thanks for your feedback, Kerrie Stevens Harvest Bible College Melbourne, Australia

Hi, I've noticed a problem with my biblio records. Biblio.datecreated and biblio.timestamp are well fullfilled in the database but are not displayed in the biblio record. I've executed this but with no results (in koha <https://github.com/colinsc/koha>/ misc <https://github.com/colinsc/koha/tree/master/misc>/ maintenance <https://github.com/colinsc/koha/tree/master/misc/maintenance>/) perl *UNIMARC_sync_date_created_with_marc_biblio.pl. Has someone an idea? Best regards, Samuel *

Good day, Do anyone use ExtendedPatronAttributes? May we know how do you use them? Can this be used to limit the "search capability" of the Patron/Borrower in Opac? Salamat Manny Tamayao
