Hi Michael, Why do some items belong to branch B if they’re never going there? I’m asking because there is an option in the circulation rules to « float » your collection, meaning that wherever the item is returned, it will stay at whichever branch it was checked in at. https://koha-community.org/manual/18.11/en/html/administration.html#default-... I *think* this doesn’t affect the homebranch (your item would have homebranch B, holdingbranch A), but I’m not 100% sure. Thats why I was asking why some items belong to branch B. Hope this helps! -- Caroline Cyr La Rose, M.L.I.S. Librarian, Product Manager Solutions inLibro Le 29 janvier 2020 à 05:58:05, Michael Kuhn (mik@adminkuhn.ch(mailto:mik@adminkuhn.ch)) a écrit:
Hi
Our library is financed by two organisations. Thus we have one Koha 18.11 instance with two separate branches, but only one circulation counter where we are checking in the items.
Say we are logged in at the counter with branch A and checking in an item belonging to branch B - this will result in the following status message for the item: "In transit from branch A to branch B since 26/01/2020". To set this status to "Available" we need to log in as branch B and to check in the item once more.
We would better like if the status could just go to "Available" since in fact there is no transport necessary.
After some fruitless reading of the manual I came up with the idea to just delete the content of table "branchtransfers" every minute via cronjob:
DELETE FROM branchtransfers;
The status is then "Available", as desired.
Is this possible/advisable, or do you know a better way?
