[Koha] Barcode Import for Catalogue Items

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Hughes,

Koha doesn't have a feature to batch add barcodes.

You could use SQL to update the items table. If you do that, you should 
reindex after to make sure that the search index contains the new item 
information.

You should also be able to export the records, add item barcodes, and 
reimport them overlaying the existing items.

Hope this helps,

Katrin
