card number and borrower number
by jtate 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

In our system, we assign the card number. In the beginning, the card number and borrower number was the same. Not sure when it happened, but now they are different. Should this be and will it affect the system in any way? -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/card-number-and-borrower-number-tp5918232… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hide lost items hide bibliographic record
by Hugo Agud 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Good morning to all, We have configured the hide lost items in Koha, but we have the side effect that if there is no more items on biblio record, it also hide the bibliographic record from the search, this is something we already know, but I though that some patch fixed it, but now I am not sure If I am wrong. Anybody knows if this is the normal behaviour or it could be defined to show always de bib record, even the items is hidden and there is no more items' thanks in advance Hugo -- *Hugo Agud - Orex Digital * *www.orex.es <http://www.orex.es>* <http://www.orex.es/> [image: www.orex.es/koha] <http://www.orex.es/koha> [image: www.orex.es/vufind] <http://www.orex.es/vufind> <http://www.orex.es/omeka> Director Calle Sant Joaquin,117, 2º-3ª · 08922 Santa Coloma de Gramanet - Tel: 933 856 138 hagud(a)orex.es · http://www.orex.es/ No imprima este mensaje a no ser que sea necesario.

flat fee on notice generation
by Radek Šiman 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Hello everyone, I'd like to ask a question concerning overdue fees. One of our library requests to add a flat fee to common overdue fines. Is it possible to automatically generate a flat fee for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd overdue notices? Let's say a patron owes $5 as a overdue fine of 5 books. The library needs to automatically add to it, for instance, one-off $10 as a flat fee, because the patron has been notified about the items over due. Of course, it's always possible to add such a fee manually, but then the staff has to know which kind of notice has already been generated and the amout must be calculated by humans not mentioning that people can make mistakes. Could anybody recommend a good solution or is it a missing feature right now? Thanks a lot, Radek

Further adventures with Koha update to 16.xxx
by David Whelchel 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Hi all, It has been several weeks down the road, listing to good music, since my last post and I have made progress in moving from the old Koha Version 16.05.05.000 on Debian 3.2.84-1 x86_64 to Koha 16.11.01 on Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 (jessie), with a quick pass through Koha 16.05.07 on jessie to see if it would correct the errors listed below. No luck, when trying to update to 16.11.01 from either 16.05.05 or 16.05.07 I receive these errors below when going through the Web Installer- Step 3 (Updating database structure). Obviously the 16.0.05 is on a much older code base and OS but the 16.05.07 (no errors here - and I can complete the update and have a functioning system) and the 16.11.01 are on fresh installs of Debian 8.6 and the Koha Common Debian package with an import of the original production database. My questions - 1. are these errors to be expected? 2. Can some of them be ignored? 3. If the error cannot be ignored what is the proper path to move on from here? I am hesitant to make any manual changes to the underlying database as I do not know what down the road implications there might be. Thanks - sorry for the long list of errors but that is what is in red at this step in the process - but I feel that I am almost there.

Suppressed Bibs Export Issues
by Eric Phetteplace 18 Jan '17

18 Jan '17

Hi list, I'm struggling to find the best way to perform weekly exports of only our *visible* catalog records. We have a discovery layer which takes updated MARC exports, but if a record is suppressed in Koha (either by OpacHiddenItems or 942$n) it still appears in search results, albeit as a broken link. I partially avoid records suppressed at the bib level by excluding bibs where 942$n = 'Y' or '1' in our export report. The report looks at which bibs are new or have been updated since the last time I ran it. There are two problems though: 1) bib records where *all* attached items meet our OpacHiddenItems criteria also need to be suppressed 2) I send newly-deleted record lists too, but not newly-suppressed records (which should be treated as deleted) Sorry if that doesn't make much sense. Basically, I need my current "recently updated bibs" report to skip bibs were all items are hidden in the OPAC*, and I need my "deleted records" report to also include bibs which *used to be visible* but became suppressed since the last update. My SQL knowledge isn't up to either of these tasks. Alternatively, is there some workflow or metadata change we can make to help with this? For instance, what if we stopped using OpacHiddenItems and always suppressed items by setting 942$n? That would fix my first problem, but not the second. My other thought is to use an external database or post-processing script that would let me perform more complex logical checks on records before including them in the update. For instance, a PyMARC script which checks each 952 field on an exported MARC record to see if the record meets our OpacHiddenItems criteria. That's more work than a SQL report but perhaps necessary. * current "updated bibs" report: SELECT biblionumber FROM biblioitems WHERE DATE(timestamp) >= <<update since|date>> -- skip suppressed bibs AND ExtractValue(marcxml, '//datafield[@tag="942"]/subfield[@code="n"]' ) NOT IN ('Y', '1') Best, Eric Phetteplace Systems Librarian California College of the Arts libraries.cca.edu | vault.cca.edu 510.594.3660 2>/dev/null

New Calendar (17015)
by Philippe Blouin 18 Jan '17

18 Jan '17

Good morning, afternoon, evening, night, Koha Last summer, I brought the issue of the calendar recoding that had been in limbo for a long time, blocking our tentative features like opening hours and fines by minutes. Also among my pet peeves was the fact that calendar calculation where nonapologetically very very (very) slow, slowing the script fines.pl but mostly the simple checkin/checkouts. So Mehdi coded a whole new Calendar (https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17015) It includes * A new db table storing everyday in the past and future as needed with their respective opening hours. o Perfect calculation for hourly loans o Perfect setup for OPAC display of opening hours * A new intuitive UI o The patches do not remove the old code. It stays in parallel for comparison right now. * A patch replacing all usage of the old calendar by the new one. * A full test suite, replicating all the tests in the previous suite * An speed improvement of 7x for fines.pl * A *_speed improvement of 5-10x_* for checkin with late fees (depending on elapsed time since due date) o Yeah, 4 minutes for 1000 late returns instead of 21 minutes. We know this tool is a huge improvement on the previous code. It also opens a lot more development possibilities for the imagitive Koha developpers. We'll be pushing for it, and I hope it'll get support. We'll fix and improve. Oh, and _*to the testers*_ out there: it's a fun feature. Much more fun to test than some architectural stuff. :) So please come and try it!!
