On Koha 3 alpha (Debian Etch), I was able to use the Patron Import tool available via the Staff Client Tools page, successfully importing hundreds of patron records from a CSV file. I've tried the same thing on the beta: it tells me it was successful, but when I search the patron records, none are there except the ones I've entered manually.
Am I missing something?
Some things to check - were there any error messages in the Apache error log? Were all of the patron categories mentioned in the input file defined in administration before you did the import?
I'm gratified to read that there is a Patron Import tool in 3.0. If there are errors detected during the upload, i.e. incorrect category code, invalid title, that kind of thing, a suggestion would be to display the errors on the upload page so that the librarian can fix and reload. cheers rickw -- ________________________________________________________________ Rick Welykochy || Praxis Services || Internet Driving Instructor We like to think of ourselves as the Microsoft of the energy world. -- Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron
