[Koha] Problem in importing Patron Records

Dear Elaine

Can you share the patron excel file and also check the under system
configuration "BorrowerMandatoryField" which are the fields mandatory, for
uploading purpose you can remove those mandatory fields and try uploading
the patron records. Regarding the borrowernumber, What i used to do is
manually enter the borrowernumber (use the excel feature of auto numbering).


Line 2 Critical field "surname" missing (borrowernumber: UNDEF; surname:
UNDEF). > If Surname is mandatory field and any one row is missing the
surname data, Koha will show error. 
Line 2 Critical field "branchcode" missing (borrowernumber: UNDEF; surname:
UNDEF). - check the branchcode in the .CSV file and the branchcode you have
defined in Koha, if both are not matching it will show error or if .CSV have
a new branch code it will again show you error. 
Line 2 Critical field "categorycode" missing (borrowernumber: UNDEF;
surname: UNDEF). = same as branchcode error - you have not defined the
catagorycode in the Koha setting. 

Thanks and Regards

Are you saying there should be quotes around the fields?
Because I'm getting similar failures and the fields are there, but it's not
seeing them.

Here's what I'm getting (in 3.08.05):
Feedback:

Parsing upload file Patron upload test2.csv
Content-Type : application/octet-stream
Content-Disposition : form-data; name="uploadborrowers";
filename="Patron upload test2.csv"
headerrow : CARDNUMBER, SURNAME, FIRSTNAME, TITLE, INITIALS, ADDRESS,
ADDRESS2, CITY, ZIPCODE, COUNTRY, EMAIL, PHONE, BRANCHCODE,
CATEGORYCODE, DATEEXPIRY


Error analysis:

Line 2 Critical field "surname" missing (borrowernumber: UNDEF; surname:
UNDEF).
Line 2 Critical field "branchcode" missing (borrowernumber: UNDEF;
surname: UNDEF).
Line 2 Critical field "categorycode" missing (borrowernumber: UNDEF;
surname: UNDEF).

It's all there.
Is Koha expecting the fields in a particular order? I'm supplying the
header row (above). But it's not connecting the two somehow. I have
tried with and without quotes around the fields, neither seems to
work.

Samuel,

If you want to map the userid field in Koha to "SupannAliasLogin" from your
ldap configuration simply change <userid is="uid"></userid> to <userid
is="SupannAliasLogin"></userid>.

If you are asking how to bind on SupannAliasLogin you should be able to
perform the step above and in the principal name field just enter %s and
nothing else.  That will try and bind on the username without joining any
other strings.

Best,

I have to set up a system to convert information from our membership
list into patron files on a monthly basis to catch expired
memberships. I run the file through a database called Cardbox for
batch editing. Cardbox exports have never cause any problems with csv
formatting before.
As an experiment, I ran the Cardbox csv file through (an old version
of) excel and exported a new csv file.  But it didn't help, and in
fact broke the date formatting (deleting the zero padding).

We are using the same date format as is set in our system preferences
(dd/mm/yyyy).  For some patrons there is no expiration date (life
members). Would this be a problem - are expiration dates required?
Must I convert it to yyyy-mm-dd ? (the notes on patron import seem to
imply it's OK to use your specified date format).

I changed the date format to YYYY-MM-DD
I also added a date to the patron records that didn't have them.
I saved it as an ods file, and then closed it opened it and saved it as csv.
None of these things worked. Same error messages.
