Hi Steve, Sorry for the delay in responding--I pried myself away from my computers for a few days' camping. I'm running 3.12.0 on Xubuntu installed from Koha Live DVD 3.10 and then updated/upgraded. Here's what I ended up doing: Run fix_onloan.pl Create a dummy user account. Check out every book in the collection to the user, then check them back in. Everything should show as available now. Elegant? No. Time-consuming for a huge collection? Yes. (Our collection is around 19,000 items.) The best way to do it? Probably not. The only benefit is that it works. It goes much faster if you can get a list of all the barcodes in the system, then use KOC files to do mass-checkouts. MUCH faster than scanning every barcode. E-mail me if you'd like details, or I can post to the list if anyone thinks it would be useful.

I've used MarcEdit to create some MARC records to import our "holdings" but when I search ALL items come up showing "No copies available" for an Availability status. I did pretty much the same thing a couple of months back on our "test" environment and was successful at getting all of our records imported and created a "template" / map file in MarcEdit that I used again this time to try to import into our "production" system, but am now getting this message for all items. I'm not 100% sure what version of Koha our "test" system was running (and it is now shutdown), but is it possible that some fields are now in different places in the database? I have looked at items.barcode, items.homelibrary, and items.holdinglibrary and all 3 of those fields have correct values in my current database.are there other fields that are required for Koha to know that we actually hold a copy of that item for check-out? I also did notice on the MARC import in Koha that the "MARC21" encoding set was NOT an available choice.only UTF-8 and MARC8 and a couple of others.could this have something to do with it? Are my records not getting imported properly, perhaps? If so, how do I enable MARC21 format in Koha? Any ideas what I might be missing or where else to look? THANKS!
