SQL help please
by Kerrie Stevens 13 Dec '17

Is there a way to write an SQL report where you can input a number of item barcodes (as you do when using batch modify or delete) that results in a table showing title, author, call number etc...?

Is the auto-increment fix still necessary in Koha 17.11 ?
by Chris Brown 13 Dec '17

13 Dec '17

Hello, I have just installed Koha 17.11.00 onto a new server. Do I still need to implement the "auto-increment" fix described at wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/DBMS_auto_increment_fix, or is this issue resolved in the latest version of Koha? Thanks, Chris Brown

Batch Check in function
by kamil 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hi, in Koha exists function named "Batch Check out" but there is no "Batch Check in". A lot of small libraries don't have self-check station. Maybe a good solution would be adding function "Batch Check in"? Thanks a lot Regards -- Sent from: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Koha-general-f3047918.html

Koha calendar
by Liny Varghese 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hi, The problem occurred in Home-Tools-Calendar. This problem is occurred recently without changing any settings in Koha. This was working earlier. Suddenly this happened. Koha Calendar is not displaying to set holidays. I just tried with 2 scenarios: a. When I set my library, calendar is not displaying. b. If no library is set, the calendar is showing up. Since it is December, we need to set holidays for the next year, otherwise due days will clash. Any help is very much appreciated Liny Varghese Information Scientist University Library Cochin University of Science and Technology Kochi-22, Kerala<div id="DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><br /> <table style="border-top: 1px solid #D3D4DE;"> <tr> <td style="width: 55px; padding-top: 13px;"><a href="https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…" target="_blank"><img src="https://ipmcdn.avast.com/images/icons/icon-envelope-tick-round-orange-anima…" alt="" width="46" height="29" style="width: 46px; height: 29px;" /></a></td> <td style="width: 470px; padding-top: 12px; color: #41424e; font-size: 13px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">Virus-free. <a href="https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…" target="_blank" style="color: #4453ea;">www.avast.com</a> </td> </tr> </table><a href="#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2" width="1" height="1"></a></div>
