Transcribing agency
by library＠ssst.edu.ba 11 Jun '23

11 Jun '23

Hello, I have a question about field 040$c: transcribing agency. When I import a record from the British Library or LOC, there will be a code from those institutions. If I am adding locally published books not imported via Z39.50 servers, what do I add here? It's a required field. I found a message msg28536.html in the mail-archive list from Caroline about removing mandatory flags with the caveat that she does not recommend it for the leader or control fields 005 and 008 - what about 040$c? If it's not recommended for this field either, what should I write here? Best regards Aida Đikić

The Terrific Every-Other-Thursday Training Video | S3E20 | Anonymization and Pseudonymization
by BRANNON, CHRISTOPHER 08 Jun '23

08 Jun '23

We can't pronounce it at all, but we sure can talk about it. We've had anonymization around for a while, but pseudonymization is a mouth-full and a fairly new topic. In fact, it is so new we brought a guest on today's episode to help slaughter the word, while bringing light to the subject. Help reduce the clutter of your data while securing your patron's privacy. All this and Rogan Hamby. Whoops! I should have encrypted his name!!! https://youtu.be/cV-HAiGfIOE Christopher Brannon 2023 koha-US President

advance_notice.pl script and --digest-per-branch parameter
by Stephen Graham 08 Jun '23

08 Jun '23

Hi All - is anyone out there using the --digest-per-branch parameter with the advance_notice.pl. It sounds like it will do what we want to achieve but cannot get to work. We've been testing on our dev server (which has recently been updated to 22.11) and when we use this parameter the job never completes. When I grep for advance_notices.pl using ps -ef I can see the jobs still running. If I run it from the cmd line manually the job just hangs/never finished either. If we remove the digest parameter then the script works and completes within a few seconds. We haven't tried this on our production server (still running 21.11) and don't want to really , but just to find out if we would get the same on 21.11 (i.e. it's a bug in the script) or if it's specific to 22.11?

Koha_Cash_Register_Issue_Help
by Mohan Kumar K.V. 08 Jun '23

08 Jun '23

Hi, I am writing to request your assistance in enabling the title and barcode field in our Koha cash register report with Transaction Type “Payment”. Subsequently, we are working with Koha 21.05 and we tried generate the report of Fine Payment through Cash Register under Report section >> Statics Wizard, we were able to get only limited field and filed values i.e., “Patron Card No, Patron name, Transaction Library, Transaction date, Transaction type, Fine Amount” Unfortunately, system didn’t generated corresponding “Title, Barcode and Item Type”. Hence we need your support in enabling the title and barcode field in our Koha cash register report with Transaction Type “Payment”. which will help us to identify exact title and barcode for the fine charged to patrons. We look forward to your prompt response and assistance. With regards, Mohan Sri Venkateshwara Group of Institutions Bangalore (India)

Advance Notice (PREDUEDGST) in Koha
by Rupinder Singh 08 Jun '23

08 Jun '23

Hi, We recently migrated to Koha from proprietary software. Everything is running smoothly. I want my koha to send 3 Advance reminders to each patron before their item is due. For Example: if an item is due on 7th June. I want my system to send them 1st due date advance notice on 4th of June, 2nd advance notice on 5th of June and 3rd Advance Notice on 6th of June. How can I do that? I am under the impression that koha sends due date reminders repeatedly, but that is after the due date of the book is crossed. Please advise. Thank You Rupinder Singh
