Challenge with Circulation Permissions Automatically Unchecking in Koha 24
by Linda Semu 19 Feb '26

19 Feb '26

Dear Koha Support Team, I hope you are well. I am currently experiencing a challenge in Koha 24 under *Set Permissions*, specifically within the *Circulation rights* section. When assigning circulation permissions to a staff member, I have noticed that if I uncheck certain sub-permissions under the circulation module, the main permission “Check out and check in items (circulate)” automatically becomes unchecked as well. This behavior occurs even when other circulation-related permissions remain selected. As a result, it becomes difficult to configure limited or specific circulation rights for staff members without unintentionally disabling the entire circulation module. Could you please clarify whether this is the expected behavior in Koha 24 or if this may be a configuration issue? Additionally, I would appreciate guidance on the correct way to assign basic circulation rights without triggering the automatic removal of the main circulation permission. Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your guidance on resolving this matter. -- The contents of this email and its attachments are confidential.
