Mark a batch of items as missing?
by Mark Alexander 26 Mar '20

26 Mar '20

After doing some inventory in our library, I obtained a list of the barcodes of a few dozen lost items. Now I'd like use the batch item modification tool to change the "lost status" for that set of items. But I don't see a way to do that with this tool. Is there another way? I'd like to avoid having to mark the items as missing one by one. I'll resort to SQL if necessary. Thanks in advance!

Update on Kohacon
by Kathryn Tyree 23 Mar '20

23 Mar '20

Kia ora koutou, Unfortunately it seems increasingly unlikely that Kohacon will go ahead. Our recommendation is that you do not book any flights or accommodation at this stage. We intend to make a decision to go ahead, or not, in July. Very best wishes to you all, and your families, through this difficult time.

Re: [Koha] Item Limitation
by BRANNON, CHRISTOPHER 21 Mar '20

There is a limit. I don't remember what it is, but I had to split a bib in two because some of our items were not showing. We have 403 items on one bib and 291 on another. I think we broke it up by date range on the items. The limit could be 450. I am not certain though. ___________________________ 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 ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2020 08:30:34 +0000 (UTC) From: Esmael Wan <opensistem(a)yahoo.com> To: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: [Koha] Item Limitation ?

Re: [Koha] Elasticsearch setup
by Jonathan Druart 20 Mar '20

20 Mar '20

Tom, The error is bad, I guess it comes from get_all_biblios_iterator. What are you developer skill? I'd try to know if it comes from wrong/bad data from a record, or something else. It seems that you are back to version 7 ("To be compatible with 7.0..." in the logs)? You can certainly ignore the warnings.
