Hi Folks, For new users of 2.2.9 looking for a solution to this topic, please read on...
if this is indeed a bug I'll be happy to add it Bugzilla.
It turned out the bug was known : 1351 (Bugzilla) and it had been fixed in the CVS but somehow did not make it into the release. The solution was to go to CVS to download/install the following files on my Koha server: Members.pm (modules/C4) ********** http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/C4/Members.pm?view=log&root=koha&pathrev=rel_2_2 and memberentry.pl (intranet/cgi-bin/members) ************ http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/members/memberentry.pl?view=log&root=koha&pathrev=rel_2_2 I now have the auto-calc functionality in memberentry.pl - which allows our librarians to add new patrons as per design. If you follow the instruction, so should you :-) Best Wishes, Bo
