transfers to receive- checking in books
Hi, if this message looks familiar it's because I posted it originally back in 2013, but got no response. I am still having the same problem. An annoying thing is occurring when I check in an item in the circulation module. After I check in as usual, the status becomes "In transit from Cary Institute Library, to , since . " Then I have to go into Transfers to Receive and cancel the transfer for that item before it will display as available for loan in the OPAC record. Any tips or advice? I searched bugs and didn't find anything about this. We use Koha 3.18.06.000 (Linux ubuntu). Hope you can help. thanks! Amy Schuler schulera@caryinstitute.org

I'm not sure but since the status changes when you check in an item I'd have a look at the system parameter "UpdateNotForLoanStatusOnCheckin". For Koha 3.18 this parameter is described in http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/administration.html#circprefs To find out how it works it may be helpful to also have a look at the similar parameter "AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived", described in http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/administration.html#acqprefs As far as I know there are at least the following statuses * -1 = ordered * 0 = "" (available for loan) * 1 = not for loan * 2 = staff collection Kind regards, Michael
Hi Amy, another thought would be that there is something off with your homebranches and holdingbranches - could you check the homebranch and holdingbranch of your items? Maybe best would be to check with an SQL report, so the pull downs in cataloguing can't hide any extra characters or empty fields. Does it happen always for all items? Always for the same items?
