Lori,

They are refunded the replacement price for the book, but not the fines.

Dear Friends,

I got trouble when I try to customise MARC framework BKS. I used following command to hide all fields in catalouing page,

*use koha;*

*UPDATE marc_subfield_structure SET tab='-1' WHERE frameworkcode='BKS';*

**

*This makes all MARC tags tab to Ignore status. *

An then I enable (setting tag to display in 0 tab)  only necessary fields for data entry goto Adminstration > MARC Bibliogrpahic Framework.

This method was successful till 3.4.5. But after apply the same method with version 3.6.3 does not working. The result is that OPAC MARC View does not display bibliographic records, https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-H0APDWhWE8o/Tz6G1-1TX7I/AAAAAAAAGzw/e-0I3...

Another problem is that not able to search for barcode from Advanced search in both staff client and OPAC.

If your time permits, you can check my koha 3.6.3 database backup here, http://ksrcas.pbworks.com/w/file/51062714/koha.sql.gz

username is librarian, password is librarian123 There is a sample record of book in it.

May I know what method you are following for customize MARC fields in cataloging?

Hi Lori,

I did a test case and came up with more of a mystery than an answer.  The thing I did was I checked a book out.  Than marked it as lost through the edit item interface, and it applied the cost of the book to the patron account.  I checked the book back in but no credit was issued.  So I than checked the item back out, and put a lost fine in the account/fines detail section of the patron account.  I than waived the amount, checked the item in, and the system issued a credit for the item, but since I had waived the fine the patron was owed a credit at that point.

So I guess there is really no slick way to do this other than to mark the book as lost in the edit item interface.  If the patron turns it back in it will issue a message telling you that it was lost.  Than at that point I'd imagine the patron would want some sort of refund, so you should be able to get their card, or surname, or at the very least do a little research under the item barcode hyper-text link and get their account straightened out.

Hope that helps,

Colleagues,

I have set up KOHA 3.6.1 running on Ubuntu 10.10, my only problem is that It can't send emails to patrons on registering or even overdues (everything is set for it). Kindly take me through on how to set it up (do you need to configure Ubuntu to be able to send mails or KOHA and how).
