Thank you for your response What about you want to restrict the user who has rights to modify user rights to his own library and limit him from making himself a super librarian.

It's the items attached to that biblio that belong to a branch, and are kept independent by the IndependantBranches system preference. If you need to keep your cataloging completely separate, you'd either need some development, or separate installations. -Ian 2010/12/9 Steve Kiarie <sorosteroge@yahoo.com> Kindly look at that below --- On Thu, 12/9/10, Steve Kiarie <sorosteroge@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Steve Kiarie <sorosteroge@yahoo.com> Subject: Libraries not independent as yet To: "Owen Leonard" <oleonard@myacpl.org> Date: Thursday, December 9, 2010, 6:15 AM Greetings Koha version: 3.02.00.007 IndependantBranches Don't prevent Prevent staff (but not superlibrarians) from modifying objects (holds, items, patrons, etc.) belonging to other libraries. Scenario 1 I have created users and given the head librarians all rights except they are not super librarians and can't Modify login / permissions for staff users however if one of them searches for a book and finds it and clicks on edit record then edits and click on save the changes are made to the original record and saved in the original branch even if it is not in his home branch (The branch that he is registered). Try the above scenario and let me know the way forward. Scenario 2 Then what happens if you want to give a individual head of a branch these rights he or she can add himself as a supper librarian and hence over ride the actual super librarian staffaccess Modify login / permissions for staff users The ideal situation is where one who has the following roles staffaccess Modify login / permissions for staff use can only Change his library alone and he can't make himself a super librarian First look at the scenario 1 for a start Stephen --- On Thu, 12/9/10, Owen Leonard <oleonard@myacpl.org> wrote: From: Owen Leonard <oleonard@myacpl.org> Subject: Re: [Koha] Libraries not independent as yet To: "Steve Kiarie" <sorosteroge@yahoo.com> Cc: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Date: Thursday, December 9, 2010, 5:31 AM
Libraries independent has not been realized as yet a cataloger from one library can edit and save changes of a Biblios records from a different library
What version are you using, and do you have the IndependantBranches preference turned on? -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha -- Ian Walls Lead Development Specialist ByWater Solutions Phone # (888) 900-8944 http://bywatersolutions.com ian.walls@bywatersolutions.com Twitter: @sekjal
