Hi, You can prefix branch code before barcode, it will become unique for database. Hope I have understood your issue correctly. Vikram Zadgaonkar On Tue, Oct 21, 2014 at 8:24 PM, Jeramey Valley <valleyj@bcreek.org> wrote:
Looking more for confirmation here....
Multiple "independent" branches still require unique barcodes for each item, correct?
I was under the incorrect assumption that there would be behind-the-scenes magic that would tie barcodes to their home library/location and so there could be the same barcode in use at multiple branches, each for a different item.
As in:
Library 400 Book A, barcode 2001
Library 500 Book B, barcode 2001
I was looking forward to having one install with a shared catalog, patron database and other "one stop management" functions.
