Shifting existing orders from 'current' budget to 'next' budget
by Joann Ransom 11 Jul '14

11 Jul '14

Hi everyone, We are just about to flip our acquisitions budget over to the next financial year and I cannot remember how to shift existing orders from the 'current' budget to the 'next' budget so that they will show in the 'ordered' column of the acquisitions summary screen when I close of 2013/2014 and make 2014/2015 live. Can anyone help?

List compromised?
by Paul A 11 Jul '14

11 Jul '14

[off-topic to some extent] For the last few days, I have been spammed every time I post to this list -- by young ladies trying to "date" me. I'm flattered -- coming up 75 and uglier than sin -- but just wondering if it's only happening to me? Best -- Paul

Modifications log and privacy
by Jerry Carbone 11 Jul '14

11 Jul '14

We are a 6 member consortium running Koha 3.14.5. In the State of Vermont we have a robust library record protection statute and all libraries have policies regarding retention of personally identifiable information. Do other libraries have concerns regarding the modification log that keeps links to item that patrons have checked out? The anonymizer cron job is running and links to the item record and patron are broken. Welcome any and all replies, especially from libraries that may have work-arounds to this situation in protecting patron reader privacy. Thanks Jerry Carbone, Library Director Brooks Memorial Library 224 Main St. Brattleboro, VT 05301 802-254-5290, ext 101 802-251-8195

This is happening in my installation. The barcode can be entered manually but fails when the barcode reader is used. Is there a patch for this issue or does anyone know how to resolve it? There has to be a way to turn on or off koha email. I've done a lot of Google searching and from time to time I see a command that can be run on Koha - Koha-enable-email (instance). I've check Ubuntu and I don't find this command anywhere. I'm starting to believe this command exists for only certain flavors of Linux. How is Koha email turned on and off in version 3.14 on Ubuntu? Thanks for any help. Phillip _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

Barcode bug - barcode scanning fails
by Phillip Ponchot 10 Jul '14

10 Jul '14

I've got a major problem in that the barcode reader reads a book on checkout or checkin but fails to do either. The checkin or checkout can be entered by hand and the book will checkin or checkout. Of course this forces extra work on the circulation desk. As I can tell, the closest bug is 11292 and I have seen this issue mentioned intermittently on the web. Is there a patch or fix for this barcode reader issue and how do I get it? Thanks for any info. Phillip

Koha search error
by Dibyendra Hyoju 10 Jul '14

10 Jul '14

Hi all, Just recently after upgrading the Koha from 3.14 to 3.16 we have been facing following problem when certain keywords are used during the search like: account, business, accounting, financial, financial accounting, etc. Earlier there were no such problems. But when I search other keywords apart from the mentioned keywords, there are no problems. Has anyone faced this kind of problem and found a solutions already? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Software error: Can't call method "as_string" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Koha.pm line 1608. Regards, Dibyendra Hyoju
