[Koha] Item availability status

[Steven Nickerson]

That definitely fixed the issue for me, Robin, so thanks again!!!  I see the availability status properly in both the "summary" and "detail" screens now.

Availability is tracked in two places, for efficiency and convenience reasons. One is the issues table. This is what the detail display uses, and this was probably migrated.

The second is in the items table, column 'onloan' and it should be null (for items that aren't issued) or the due date. Most likely this wasn't updated in the migration. Try running this SQL:

update items,issues set items.onloan=issues.date_due where issues.itemnumber=items.itemnumber;

which will populate the items.onloan from the issues table. Then do a full zebra rebuild.
