[Koha] no individual item number

[Joshua Ferraro]

Hi Mike,

Have you set up item types in system parameters?  Do your
marc records specify item types?  If so you can map the tag
and subfield with the item type codes in your marc records
in the links section of parameters.  Koha needs to have the
item types specified in order to give an item count.

If you can't map item types from your marc records you can
automatically populate all your records with one item
type (you will still need to set it up in system parameters).
So for example, after setting up a 'AF' item type in parameters
you can type (from mysql prompt):

>use Koha;
>update biblioitems set itemtype='AF';

that will set all the itemtypes to AF and you should be good to
go ...

Let us know how it turns out.

Joshua
