I am hoping someone can help me fix this problem with our system. I am a volunteer librarian at a small elementary school that switched to Koha about a year and a half ago. I really have no support and have been trying to fix this problem for a while but cannot figure it out. Many of the books in our system come up with this error when they are checked out: Software error: C4::Calendar->new(branchcode => $branchcode) at/usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Circulation.pm line 2722 I think that I have isolated it to books that under the item view do not show a current location. Other books show the current location as the school name. However, when I go to edit items, it does show the school name there, so I don't see where I can edit this. This seems to be about 50% of the books in the library! If there is another way I can edit item location, please let me know. I am so frustrated trying to fix this! -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Branchcode-Error-tp5772895.html Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Under edit items is exactly where you should be able to correct this. What version of Koha are you using? Does your version include batch modification of items? This would be a quick way of updating the records which lack branch information. Current location should also be updated whenever an item is returned, so you would normally be able to update it by checking in items. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
Thank you for replying! I am using version 3.06.00.000, and I cannot find a place I would be able to do a batch modification. It seems as if it is the "home library" that is not set on these items. However, I do not see a place to add home library. Under edit items there is "permanent location" and a "current location" but both of these look the same under "edit items". <http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/file/n5773026/hunger_games.bmp> <http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/file/n5773026/no_place.bmp> -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Branchcode-Error-tp5772895p5773026.html Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

"Home library" = "permanent location" And of course I'm going to tell you that you're using a very old version of Koha. The current stable release is 3.12.5. If you upgrade, your home library fix is as simple as one report and one batch update operation. -- Owen
