Koha Acquisition Module - problems when modifying the price, conversion rate and currency while receving the order
by Paul Pandian 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

Hi, We at The Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai, India have been successfully been using all the modules of Koha including serials module. We have recently upgraded to the version 16.11.05 from 3.22 without any issues. We request Koha developers to kindly look at the following issues with regard to Acquisition module: 1. Koha->Acquisitions->Vendor->Receive shipment 2. Invoice details are filled in -> Next 3. Under receipt summary, select the basket and receive the item If no changes are required like price, currency and conversion rates etc, then no problem and finish the receiving. But, when we need to change the price or currency or conversion rates, then option available to effect the change is only through editing the orderline number (by clicking the orderline number) in the receipt summary page. In Koha 3.22: While editing the order line number, the URL passes two parameters viz.1. ordernumber and 2.booksellerid as shown below: http://library.imsc.res.in:8001/cgi-bin/koha/acqui/neworderempty.pl?ordernu… As you may notice, the parameters passed in the URL hold good for books acquisition. But for the serials, subscriptionid is another important parameter to be passed in the URL to identify the particular serial subscription. This is not provided in Version 3.22. We manually pass this subscriptionid parameter in the URL as below to acheive the functionality: http://10.96.68.205:8001/cgi-bin/koha/acqui/neworderempty.pl?ordernumber=4&… In Koha 16.11.05 In 16.11.05, the subscriptionid as a parameter is also being passed alongwith ordernumber, booksellerid in the URL while editing the orderline for change of price, currency and conversion rate when receiving the item as follows: For Serials: http://10.96.68.172:8001/cgi-bin/koha/acqui/neworderempty.pl?ordernumber=79… This works without any problem (It is being fixed in the 16.11.05 which was a bug in 3.22) For Books: http://10.96.68.172:8001/cgi-bin/koha/acqui/neworderempty.pl?ordernumber=79… As you may notice in the above URL, there is no subscriptionid value as it is a book, hence the following error occured: Software error: Cannot insert order: Mandatory parameter basketno is missing at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/acqui/addorder.pl line 289. We have to manually remove the parameter &subscriptionid=, then only are we able to process the invoice and receive the book. THIS IS A BUG. Many of you who use acquistion for both books and Serials must have come across the above problems and request the Koha Developers community to kindly spare some to fix these problems at the earliest. Looking forward to your help! Thanks and Regards, Paul Pandian and Maruthu Pandiyan Institute of Mathematical Sciences CIT Campus, Taramani Chennai 600113, India

Impossible to renew items
by mpw 02 Aug '17

02 Aug '17

I'm running Koha version 17.05.01 on Debian 8.8. I'm setting up a new library. I have checked out eight books. In the renewable column they are all listed as "Not renewable (0 of 0 renewals remaining)". Several people have suggested removing all the circulation and fine rules and creating a single rule the holds for all patron types and all item types. For example here: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/All-items-quot-not-renewable-quot-td59254… I've tried that several times but none of the tries ever made any difference. Right now I only have one rule: Patron category - All Item type - All Current checkouts allowed - 20 Renewals allowed - 3 Renewal period - 14 Automatic renewal - no Since somebody in the above mentioned thread said that this might be a bug, I opened a bug report but they referred me back to this list because it's supposedly just a configuration problem. I have set the option that enables the "Override renewal limit" checkbox so I can trick the system into renewing books, but that's just a workaround and I'd like to get to the root of the problem. I've been going around in circles here for well over a week. Can anybody point me in the right direction? -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Impossible-to-renew-items-tp5941578.html Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Searching capability dies every few days - Zebra problem?
by mpw 02 Aug '17

02 Aug '17

I'm running Koha version 17.05.01 on Debian 8.8. I set up Koha a few months ago and we're still learning the system. One thing we've noticed that presumably is not normal is that every few days the searching capability dies for some reason or other. My guess is that it has something to do with Zebra. I occasionally get a message from my logrotate cronjob: Zebra already stopped for instance xxx. When I check, there are no koha or zebra processes running. I can restore the search capability by restarting Koha with "invoke-rc.d koha-common restart". Presumably some daemon or other dies but I haven't been able to figure out which one. Maybe it happens during the regular cronjobs? Does anybody have any idea how I can figure out what's happening? One workaround I'm considering is setting up a regular cronjob to restart koha-common regularly, but that doesn't strike me as being a very elegant solution. -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Searching-capability-dies-every-few-days-… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
