[Koha] Biblio export does not export records when they have no items/holdings

[King, Fred]

I ran into this same problem a while back when I was trying to export records for R2 books that had been archived. There are probably better ways to do this, but I think I ended up going to Tools/Managed Staged Records and undoing the import of that entire batch of records. Another tedious way of exporting those records might be making a list of the titles, downloading the list in compiled MARC format, and using MarcEdit or Koha Tools to add a 952, then uploading the batch, importing the item records.

Hello,

  I am having some trouble with the KOHA export of bibliographic records. In short it seems to export records only when they actually have. I am using KOHA version 18.05.14.000. Here is what I am doing exactly:

KOHA --> Tools --> Export Data --> Export bibliographic records

  To export, I use a file specifying the biblio numbers. Let’s say it has numbers 95 and 96, where 95 does not have items/holdings but 96 has.
  I do not click „Don’t export items“ but even if I do it does not change anything.
  I do not click „Remove items…“ but even if I do it does not change anything.
  The „Dont export fields“ field remains empty.
  For output format I choose Xml but that does not matter. It is the same what ever I choose


  *   I click the export button.

  Now I get my resulting Xml file which only has item #96. If I add an item/holding for #95, that one will be exported as well.

  How do I get it to work such that biblio records without items/holdings get exported? My aim is to use the resulting file and import it into another KOHA instance oft he same version.

  Thanks in advance
😊
