[Koha] Koha & PowerSchool updating patron records

[Wagner, Jane]

Yes, we have discussed this, and the question isn't really on the Koha
end.  It's how to automate the export of data from PowerSchool with
appropriate headers so that it can match up with Koha field names.  The
two sticking points are branchcode and patron category; there is presently
no direct equivalent data coming from PowerSchool to match Koha.  They are
looking for any other sites using PowerSchool and Koha, to share ideas.

The version of Koha being used is irrelevant in this context.

I assume by "in touch with Koha" you mean you have been in touch with
your support company, PTFS/Liblime? They're the ones you are going to
have to go through in order to make this possible because the software
you're running is their non-open fork of Koha.

If I've made the wrong assumptions please let us know.
