Re: [Koha] Koha 21.11.10 version, New Patrons email notice

Katrin, I think this is something different. The change to WELCOME does not take place until version 22.05 according to https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=30237. The version in question is 21.11.10. Correct me if I am wrong. I don't see this as backported in the bug. ___________________________ Christopher Brannon IT Coordinator 702 E Front Ave Coeur d'Alene, ID 83814 (208)769-2315 Ext. 456 cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org www.cdalibrary.org Keep tabs on us at: ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Fri, 12 Aug 2022 13:05:40 +0200 From: Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer.83(a)web.de> To: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] Koha 21.11.10 version, New Patrons email notice sending problem.

Circulation Rules: Parent and Child Item Type
by Ms. Naveen Ali 15 Aug '22

15 Aug '22

Dear All, In our library we rent textbooks for a semester at 10% cost of the book. To manage this in KOHA, I created a Parent Item with around 60 child items. Each child item has a different rental charge. I have applied a lending policy on the Parent Item with the understanding that it will apply to all child items. However I am not getting the desired result. To get my desired policy, I have to apply the lending policy to each child item. I don't think this is correct behavior but I don't understand what I am doing wrong. With best regards, Naveen Ali ITM-JE (EAKL) Inst Representative for HEC Digital Library Resources. NEDUET, Karachi.

shelving sequence number?
by David Schaller 13 Aug '22

13 Aug '22

Hello, The library I'm trying to convert to Koha (Dewey) sometimes uses a shelving sequence number after the cutter (usually a year). Where would this number go in the MARC21 record? Would it just be part of 082$b or would it go in another field? Thanks, David

I would like to migrate to a new Koha installation. On my current install I am seeing a lot of errors (mostly, I think, due to using cpan to install perl modules which means I often have the wrong versions :( ). I also have some auto-increment related problems in the DB. I am thinking of doing a fresh install and moving the Koha data over. However, all of the tutorials I have found recommend doing a mysqldump and then slurping that into the new DB. If I want to avoid bringing DB problems along from the old install will that method not be problematic? Is there a way to export the data to a different format and rebuild the SQL from that? (Maybe the export command under admin>tools?) I have not seen any documentation regarding my concept of a clean install hence my decision to write to the list.

However there are quite other data and configuration options for which an export is missing like libraries, circulation rules, patron categories, koha-marc mapping configuration, Marc fields configurations, etc... I would first suggest trying with an erratic dump and let the update tool from Koha do the job. There are also batch scripts in misc to fix some of the erratic data.

Zebra needs the biblionumber in order to make the connection between the record in the index and the one in your database. Check your records to see where your biblionumber is actually stored.

Manual system to koha
by kolvir73 13 Aug '22

13 Aug '22

I'm in charge of converting our small church library (about 6,000 items) from a manual system to a computerized one; volunteered actually. I've got koha installed and have worked through most of the implementation checklist. Most documents I can find are about converting from one computerized system to another, for example the koha wiki section on data migration. What I could use is some kind of guideline or article on the best way to go digital. It is a pretty big project and I have limited time, and would like to be as efficient as possible and avoid duplicate work. Does anyone know of any resources? Besides setting up koha, all that has been done is to apply some preprinted barcode labels to a small part of the collection. Thank you. ⁣
