[Koha] anonymize circulation history

[Rachel Hollis]

Greetings friends, there may be some bugs with anonymize circulation history when it is run while items are checked out.

I find that items appear on overdues reports after they have been returned. Items cannot be deleted because Koha thinks they are checked out. Items also continue to show up on overdue reports even when they have been reissued and have a new due-date. What can we do so that our data is accurate?

Some screen shots are at the following link:

The steps taken to get there are at:

We had about 700 items checked out when I ran the anonymize circulation report with a poorly selected date. We will be checking out about another 700 items in the next few days; it seems any of the items that had been checked out and are reissued will be affected. I'd be happy to revert to a backup but we've not been very good about backing up the data. My geek will be here on campus Thursday and I'll be happy to pass on anything that will help us in this situation. Other than confirming that I'd buggered it up, she didn't have any ideas immediately. We're running Koha 3.0 on Debian.
