I have a little problem in searching. as it I can not search a for a specific titles, Author, Subject rather this version search for related titles,subjects & Authors.  It brings out all the titles, subjects and Authors that contains part of the or all the search word, but not specific on that title.

Pls kindly help on how to search to specific title in the database.

I too would like to know what has changed so I can update the
documentation since I say in the documentation that you just have to
add a folder ...

Are other items showing up in your search?  If not you may need to
reindex zebra.  If that's not the case - did you link your
subscription to an existing biblio record?  That is necessary for the
subscription to show in the search - see this document:

That is what it means - but the patron should be able to figure out
which is which based on what you have as the title of the entry.

The tables get created when you run the web installer.

Good Afternoon,

 

A customer of ours is looking at implementing KOHA.  However, as far as
I can see, EDI has not been implemented yet.  Is there any other form of
electronic or automated ordering available in KOHA?  Is there a
timeframe as to when EDI would be implemented?

 

Koha 3.0 Roadmap

Status: Planning

Feature: EDI or related technology for automating the purchasing
process, etc. 

Who: CC, RH, MJ 

Note: Baker and Taylor support; Ebsco support.

 

Thanks,

Ivan Lee
