I had guessed that was the case from your last post, but I went to dinner instead of answering you. Sorry.

I have not reviewed this whole thread, but I think your situation is this:
- you have a Koha instance that you want to use for production;
- you have imported bibliographic data into that instance, that you now wish to delete; - you did not import any items, as you had the holdings information in a field other than 952;
- you have 'cleaned' the import batch, so it cannot now be reversed.

Is that right?  Then:
- did you test any circulation transactions? If so, truncate the 'accountlines', 'issues', 'reserves', 'oldissues' and 'oldreserves' tables;
- did you import any authorities?  If so, truncate the auth_header table;
- truncate the biblio and biblioitems tables;
- truncate the zebraqueue table.

That will pretty much get you back to your configured Koha with no bibliographic data. Before re-importing your data, organise your holdings into tag 952, using the 'items' mapping at Administration/Koha to MARC Mapping.

And before using any more features like 'clean', read the manual. :)

That should do it.  Best wishes,

Hello again dear Jerwyn,

I realized that the items were not imported into Koha. In fact I was checking the 
mappings under: Administration > Koha to MARC mapping, I realized that the 
items use the Tag = 952 while we are exporting them under Tag = 945. Do you think 
this is the reason? What should be done to fix this issue and be able to import 
the items when importing the records?

Thanks in advance,
Regards.

Hi Layale,

There are a lot of ways you can delete your records in KOHA, what Fischer just 
told you is one option.

You may also delete your records manually by generating this SQL script to be run in 
"Create report from SQL"

SELECT  items.itemnumber,items.barcode,biblio.title,items.itemcallnumber FROM 
items LEFT JOIN biblioitems on 
(items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblio on 
(biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber)  ORDER BY items.itemnumber asc

When you were able to generate the report, go to Batch Item Deletion and paste the 
"barcode" of your item or from a blank sheet with the itemnumber of your record 
you can delete it as well.

Regards,

- Jerwyn

Hello Katrin,

Thanks a lot for the quick response. It is very helpful for me to know how to 
import later on in case an error occurred during the import.

Can you please tell me what are the tables that need to be cleaned? I don't 
want to delete the frameworks or the initial data that comes when installing 
koha.

Many thanks,
Regards.

Hi Layale,

'clean' has a bit different meaning here. It will clean the information about 
your import, but not the records from the catalog. To do that, you can go to 
the batch detail page and there is a button to undo the import into the 
catalog. But once you have cleaned the batch, that is no longer possible.
Probably easiest now would be to delete the records from the database using SQL.

Hope this helps,

Katrin

Importance: High

Hello,

I am running Koha 3.14. I imported several batches for testing
purposes, but I need to delete those records so I go to "Manage staged
MARC records" and press on "Clean". When I search the OPAC, I can
still see those records as if they were not deleted! I rebuilt zebra
as well as restarted the zebra index but still in vain.

I need to delete all the previously imported records and start a fresh
clean catalogue. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards.
