Hi Giuseppe, do you mean adding orders and invoices for those items? I think it would probably be possible, but there are quite a few tables involved. You'd need to make sure that: - vendors exist or are created (aqbooksellers, aqcontacts) - orders with order lines are created (aqbasket, aqorders) - existing items are linked to the correct orders (aqorders_items) - invoices are created and closed (aqinvoices) There is no way from the GUI atm to link an existing item to a created order. I think you'd need some scripts to create the correct data and fill in the tables correctly. Especially being careful of the calculations with taxes etc. Hope this helps, Katrin On 04.03.2018 06:00, Giuseppe Angilella wrote:

Hi,

how can I add existing items to existing acquisitions?

The normal procedure would be to first "order" an item within an acquisition's basket, and then have it "received". But I am trying to reconstruct past acquisitions (for the sake of my library's records), that had been dealt with outside Koha.

Existing items are already populated with costs and source of acquisition.

(I wouldn't mind acting directly on the database by means of mysql commands.)

(Batch procedures would be helpful, as I have plenty of items to be added to acquisitions, and I can easily select their itemnumber into groups by means of appropriate mysql clauses.)

Many thanks.
