We are in the middle of an inventory right now. Our student workers are going through the shelves with a laptop and a barcode scanner and just scanning the barcodes as they go. If you pretend you're checking in the book, you'll get a message saying it was not checked out, but the date last seen will update to the date you scanned the barcode. When they're done I'll run a report of items that haven't been seen since before the inventory started. This process doesn't help us catch if a book is mis-shelved, but it accomplishes the basic goal. On Mon, Jun 2, 2014 at 11:47 AM, Katelyn Browne <kbrowne@ccpcs.org> wrote:
Hi everyone,
I see that a bug has already been filed for the weirdness going on with the inventory tool and datelastseen: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12329
We need to get inventory done now, though, since it's the end of the school year.
I don't see an option to set datelastseen (952$r) in batch item modification.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a workaround for the time being? Preferably something we can do through the staff interface, since I need to train other librarians to do this as well.
We have version 3.14.4 right now.
Thanks!
Katelyn.
