Hi, moving all this data would be much more complicated than just moving the patrons from one installation to the other. In order to move the loans, you'd also need to add the bibliographic records/items to the other system, possibly matching with existing records, etc. There are currently no scripts/tools in Koha to do this. Hope this helps, Katrin On 01.12.21 04:11, Bravismore Mumanyi wrote:
Just thinking aloud here. Will this process take care of active loans linked to these patrons? Any past anonymised stats, etc.

Hi Russel,
Since you can batch import patrons <https://koha-community.org/manual/21.05/en/html/tools.html#patron-import> using a CSV and export reports to CSV, yes, there's a relatively simple way to transfer patrons from one instance to another. Write a report that grabs all the columns and patrons you want to transfer (essentially `SELECT * FROM borrowers`), download it to a CSV, and import on your other instance. There are more options and nuances to it, but that is all you have to do.

Hi,
Is there is a way to batch export patron data from one Koha to another Koha?
Thank you in advance!
