Charles We're in a similar situation of just starting to look at the serials module. I can only speak for 21.11. You need to create an appropriate numbering formula, or borrow one from the wiki. Pattern library: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Serial_Pattern_Library There are three variables, so volume / issue is not a problem. https://koha-community.org/manual//21.11/en/html/serials.html It's a little tricky, but thankfully there's a test button that will show you what Koha will do with the info you entered.

Hi, all!
My library is implementing the serials module. We have been watching video tutorials, especially this one by ByWater Solutions: Deep Dive: Serials in Koha (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFnS7BK5aPM&t=27s). It seems easy enough -- yes, famous last words, comparable to Innovative Interfaces, Inc. and other ILS serial modules.
However, the tutorial is clearly for single-number periodicals, i.e., each issue is its own issue number. Using the tutorial example, Martha Stewart Living, no. 390, no. 391, no. 392, etc. How does Koha handle two-number and three-number periodicals, i.e., a journal with a volume and issue number, e.g., The Journal of the American Medical Association with vol. 3:no. 6, vol. 3:no. 7, etc.?
Many thanks, all!
