Hi Alex, it was really nice to get to know you in person :)
Q1) As others have pointed out, you can already change the quantity if items are created 'on receive' or 'in cataloguing', so it would make sense to extend this to 'on order' as well. I assume it was not implemented initially, because it would have complicated the development. Q2) I was thinking about this one for a bit: * EDIFACT: I am not sure how this would/could affect the EDIFACT ordering process, but as it's already possible now in 2 out of 3 cases, this is probably not a blocker. * Logging: It looks like changing the quantity is already logged as a change on the order line. So that's good. Q3) If we could display the same item form and controls as when creating the order, it would also allow to update and pick specific items to be removed from the order. Also it would give us a consistent GUI. Hope this helps! Katrin On 23.08.23 02:52, Alex Buckley wrote:
Hi Koha community, I really enjoyed meeting many of you at KohaCon in Finland for the first-time in person!! I have a question. We have a partner library who is interested in sponsoring an enhancement so they can change the quantity in order lines of open baskets. Currently, if you click the 'Modify' link for an order line in an open basket and change the value in the Quantity text input a JavaScript popup appears telling you "You can't add a new item, please create a new order line" - see attached screenshot. Looking at the code I can see that JavaScript popup is coming from https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/blob/1403fd847a66432efda2c8724f61bcc6e413cda9/koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/acqui/neworderempty.tt#L144 Before we go any further with starting work on making a bug report and writing this enhancement I wanted to check a few things with the community to make sure we start on the right track: Q1) Is adding the ability to change the quantity of order lines in open baskets a bad idea? Q2) Is there anything we should keep in mind? Q3) Do you have any suggestions of how to approach writing this enhancement? Any feedback, and suggestions, would be much appreciated.
