Home Branch/Holding Branch Problem 3.0.6
by Paul Davis 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

Hello; I have upgraded to 3.0.6 am having issues with many of my items do not have the holding branch or home branch, which shows items unavailable in the OPAC but still can check them out in the admin. (This may have been a carry over from an earlier upgrade because I am finding and solving issues with my zebra record.abs and MARC framework.) I examined the items table and found these fields empty. Populated the fields with SQL commands to match working records, re-indexed and still nothing. The only why I have found is to go to each record, click Edit, edit items, edit the item - fill in the info (most times it is there) and hit save. After the cron job re-index they show up fine in the OPAC. There are a lot of records involved - is there a batch way to accomplish the same thing? In the items table, homebranch and holdingbranch are already populated like the other working items. Thank you. -- Paul Davis

Problemas em encontrar itens do acervo com funcionalidade "Search"
by Geovana de Paula Santos Tarricone 02 Sep '10

02 Sep '10

Boa tarde a todos, Gostaria de pedir suas ajudas novamente..... Há algum tempo estive com problemas com o método "append_fields" e para solucioná-lo o Bernardo, também integrante da comunidade, me enviou um arquivo Biblio.pm para que eu substituísse na minha versão 3.0.0 do Koha. Como este procedimento não funcionou, infelizmente, eu instalei a versão 3.0.6. Infelizmente o mesmo problema continua: os livros que eu catalogo não são encontrados no "Search" da biblioteca mesmo depois de ter substituído o arquivo Biblio.pm. Alguém teria alguma outra opinião para me dar? Essa catalogação está quase impossível!!! Grata desde já, Geovana.

Help needed in ICU configuration in Zebra for Unicode Search
by Nitesh Rijal 02 Sep '10

02 Sep '10

Hello all.... Few days back I had posted a problem about the Unicode Nepali Searching. The problem was that whenever I searched for a word in Nepali, it returned all the records in Nepali. for eg: you can try the link http://nnl.healthnet.org.np Then as a suggestion I got answer from the community that some people had the same problem with Hebrew records and they fixed it with ICU indexing with Zebra..... I searched a lot for how to install and configure ICU in Zebra for Unicode Searching, but didn't get any concrete solution. So, if there is anyone, who has done this before...please help me. -- Nitesh Rijal BE IT rijal.it(a)gmail.com http://niteshrijal.com.np http://facebook.com/openrijal http://twitter.com/openrijal +9779841458173

credit memo
by Kohn, Karen 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Hello, We received several credit memos from one of our vendors and are applying them to an invoice that we owe. Rather than fudging it by pretending the books cost nothing (since we paid with the credit), our Acquisitions Technician would like to enter the real prices of the books and then somehow enter the credit memo. I don't think there is a way to do this. If I'm correct that this isn't possible, can someone think of a good workaround?

3.2 "no physical items" and no barcode incrementing?
by David M. Bucknell 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

We are now using 3.2, and it is very exciting! * We can add a New book in either default or book or fast format ... * We can search for it in Thai or English * When found, it displays a message under "Holdings" that says "No physical items for this record" -- But I did add an item ... . This may be related to another "challenge": * I get no barcode unless I choose incremental barcodes (annual or branch (hb ...) seem not to produce any barcode), AND * All barcodes=1 ... (I've added 3 books and their barcodes are all the same ... 1). Needless to say, I have not gotten a spinelabel to print yet (500 errors still -- probably my fault). Suggestions on any or all points above would be appreciated. Sorry to bother the list members with what is probably newbie stuff. Thank you, David -- *http://iteachnet.org *http://flossed.org *http://ischoolnet.org *Web Ideas, Tools and Sites for Teachers, Schools, and You. *Cell: +66(0*)84 329 1183; Office: +66(0*)2 980 9464 (*No "0" if calling from overseas.) ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
