[Koha] New Serials Documentation

[Nicole Engard]

Francois,

That does help! And I love the images. But I'm a bit confused based on the
way it used to work. So let me talk through this.

It used to be that you entered the rollover - that made sense to people.
So if there are 12 issues in a year per volume the rollover was 12 at which
point the volume incremented by 1 and the issue went back to 1. So are you
saying that now you don't have have a rollover field? Instead it's a combo
of the issues field and the inner counter?

How would I change the attached image to fit the new model?

Nicole
