by jmorash 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

We are currently running version 3.12. Would it be recommended or advisable to upgrade to 3.14 or 3.16? What are the differences? Thanks Jack Sent via the Samsung GALAXY S® 5, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

Vendor invoice - required field?
by Tom Hanstra 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

When receiving a shipment in Koha Acquisitions, is the Vendor invoice a required field in Koha now? We have an older version of Koha and are upgrading. We are finding that we need to enter a Vendor Invoice number now which was not required in the earlier version. In general, invoice number makes little sense when paying with credit cards anyway. Is there any workaround for this? Thanks Tom Hanstra

Downgrade koha database from 3.16.x to 3.14.x
by Dibyendra Hyoju 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

Hi all, With reference to issue on searching (http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.koha/36671) mentioned earlier in the Koha general mailing list, I am thinking to downgrade the database structure of Koha 3.16.4 to 3.14.x. While using the 3.16 database with Koha 3.14 software, it works, surprisingly, maybe both are stable release and their database schema don't have big changes. However, I have only tested searching and have not tested other functionalities. What I am thinking now is to create a database schema of version 3.14 and import only the data of Koha 3.16 database by disabling create table and drop table statements. If anyone have done this kind of task or have a better idea, please kindly suggest. Thank you. Regards, Dibyendra -- Dibyendra Hyoju

Migrating from L4U
by Curtis Rempel 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

Hello and Kia ora, How am I doing so far? :-) I'm brand new to koha and working on a project to migrate a small church library (about 3000 items) from L4U to koha running on Debian on Amazon Web Services. The Linux side of things is the easy part as I've worked with Linux since 1994. Our goal is to move away from a single user type application loaded on a single laptop to a multi-user web based application accessible from anywhere with additional features. After doing some research, koha seems to fit our requirements nicely. I've done the koha installation a number of times on a virtual test server (to take advantage of snapshot and rollback) to better familiarize myself with the various options, as best I can anyway, not really knowing a Marc record if one fell out of the sky and hit me on the head. I have also exported patrons (munging the data through a few awk and sed scripts to do data correction and formatting) and Marc records from L4U and imported the same. As far as I can tell so far, both look ok in koha through my newbie glasses. I have a few questions (and I'm sure I'll have many more as I go along) such as: 1) For anyone who has done a similar migration from L4U, what has been your experience and do you have any recommendations or things to look out for? 2) I'm not sure that I am able to capture circulation information and transfer that to koha. If not, would it make more sense to do a gradual migration where items are returned in L4U to then be checked out in koha going forward until all items have been returned? Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions. This will be an interesting project for sure. Cheers, Curtis Rempel
