Victor,

I'd recommend opening a bug on Bugzilla saying that a system preference should be added to set the maximum number of copies that can be added to a bibliographic record when someone uses the "Add multiple copies of this item" button on additem.pl.

In the meantime, if you put this jQuery in the intranetuserJS system preference, it will set the limit to 10 copies:

//Home > Cataloging > Edit TITLE > items (cataloguing/additem.pl?biblionumber=n)   //Limit the number of copies that can be added to a biblio using the "Add multiple copies of this item" button     $('#cat_additem #number_of_copies').attr('type','number').attr('max','10');

And I'll add that jQuery to the jQuery library in just a few minutes.

George

Subject: [Koha] How to limit number of copies?

Hello,
In Koha it is possible to Add an instance or choose to "Add Multiple
Copies" simultaneously to a record.
So far so good. More..... I had a situation where an employee mistakenly
typed 800,000 copies for a record.
As a result, when Koha started its automatic Indexing routine, it consumed
all of the server's memory and crashed system access. When I tried to
delete the 800,000 copies in batch, the system crashed. It took slow
deletion from 5,000 to 5,000 to reach 800,000.
Considering the aforementioned case, would any colleague know if we can
limit the quantity in the option "Add Multiple Copies"?
Thanks,
Victor
