Re: [Koha] How to receive reports to email
by Alvaro Cornejo 09 Mar '19

Hi Satish Always CC koha list so you can have more feedbacks and others can profit from discussion. You can start with the example Paul provided. I don't know perl but seems complete; however you need to define/create your query. If you don't know perl, you can use any language you know. You can place it in any where you want -you must add-its path to the cron line-. Koha have a cgi-script folder you might want to use or create one for your specific scripts. It must also have the permissions required for it to be run by your cron and access your database. As Paul said, once you have your script ready you need to add a line in your daily cron for it to execute.

by Mohamad F. Barham 09 Mar '19

09 Mar '19

Dears, I am a little bit new to KOHA system. I am trying to test KOHA adaptability to my university library (where I work). I want to add new fields to be used with items e.x binding _cost, binding_note, binding_type. I already added new columns in the database in items table to be used for binding _cost, binding_note and binding_type. the columns were added throug atomicupdate, then running the command koha-upgrade-schema INSTANCE. the columns now exist in the database, but how to add entry for KOHA to marc mapping for these new columns? is it automatically? or should is insert something else where? notes KOHA 18.11 on debian [cid:image002.png@01D327F4.25E9A910] Mohamad Barham System administrator | Information Technology Department Birzeit University P.O.Box. 14, Birzeit, Palestine Tel: + 970 22982012 | Mob: +970 597 861929 | Ext: 5616 mbarham(a)birzeit.edu | www.birzeit.edu<http://www.birzeit.edu/> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The information contained in this communication is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed and others authorized to receive it.

OpenURL Link Resolvers
by Gene Stevenson 08 Mar '19

08 Mar '19

Koha family, We're in the midst of transitioning to Koha, but we're a non-traditional user. Instead of a library, we are an abstracting database working with Koha to make our service easier to use for our subscribers (mainly libraries). Think of us as a virtual library with our patrons being actual physical libraries. Each of our patrons need the capability of linking out from our database to their in-house full-text e-journal collections via OpenURL linking (link resolver). Do you all have ideas on how this might work? Thank you in advance for your time and consideration! Gene L. Stevenson Religious & Theological Abstracts 121 S.

Koha performance and 6 million records
by Michael Kuhn 08 Mar '19

08 Mar '19

Hi We are currently running Koha 18.11 on Debian GNU/Linux 9 (virtual machine with 2 processors, 4 GB RAM) and 50'000 bibliographic records in a MariaDB database, using Zebra, and of course Plack and Memcached. There are only about 160 users. We would like to add 6 million bibliographic records (metadata of articles) that before were only indexed in the Solr index of a proprietary discovery system, but not in Koha itself. Since we are lacking experience in such large masses of data we would like to investigate about the consequences: * Will the overall performance and especially the retrieval experience suffer a lot? (note there are only 160 users) We're afraid it will... * If yes, is there a way to improve the retrieval experience? For example changing from a virtual machine to a dedicated or physical host? Adding more resp. faster processors, more RAM? Using SSD disks instead of SAS? Changing from Zebra to Elasticsearch? Or will we need to implement another discovery system, like Vufind (which is using Solr Energy)? Any tips or hints are very much appreciated!

Batch check-in or check-out of library materials
by Peter Lau 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Does Koha allow for batch check-in or check-out of library materials with a string of barcodes? If so, what delimiters does it accept? We would like to be able to use the RFID pad to allow users to put multiple items on the pad for check-in and check-out of library books.

independent branch - help
by m_kowlaski 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Hi, after install koha (18.11) instance I set on IndependentBranches and IndependentBranchesPatronModificationsi in preferences. Then I added two users assigned to different libraries and some books. Users have all the permissions except: budget_manage_all, order_manage_all, superserials, view_borrower_infos_from_any_libraries. I have a few questions: - why the user with rights (no superlibrarian) can not log in to opac? - why a user assigned to another library can create a new item to another (the possibility of choosing a library 952$a, 952$b)? - why is access to all budgets (not funds), not just for a given library? Are there any more additional settings about Independent to completely separate library? Or how do this? Can anyone help? Thanks Marcin -- Sent from: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Koha-general-f3047918.html
