[Koha] Data Migration from Millennium to Koha
Hi all, Is there anyone who can point me in the right direction. We are looking to replace our MillenniumILS with Koha. The main issue is removing our records from Millennium and importing them into Koha. Is there a company that can offer us this service?

[Koha] Importing books creates multiple items
I'm importing a csv file of books into Koha, using MarcEdit. The fields are: author, title, publisher, year, item type, barcode, and shelf location. It looks like I'm getting two items for every line in the file. One item contains the correct barcode, and the other item contains the correct shelf location. Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong? And this might be a related question: what is the difference between an authority record and a bib record?

Re: [Koha] Importing books creates multiple items
I'm having a similar problem. I have 10 attributes per excel tuple. Two attributes (the 100 and 245 fields) map correctly in the underlying MARC21 data, but each of the 952 field are imported as separate tuples instead of all into the first tuple. Correspondingly, I get eight individual items created, each only one of the 952 attributes. I found that during mapping the excel data into the appropriate 952 fields, MarcEdit 5.9 creates a separate 952 entry for each individual attribute. These separate 952 items are apparently is imported as separate books rather than a single book. I speculate that creating a single 952 cell and populating the data with the appropriate MARC data delimiters ($a, $b ...) would solve this problem, but that seems suboptimal on a large scale import.

[Koha] Does anyone use the Overdues with fines report?
Hello all, I'm working on rewriting Koha's accounting system, and I'm looking to find out if anyone is currently using the Overdues with fines report ( aka circ/branchoverdues.pl ). The reason I ask this is because there is a lot of code I will need to add in order to support just this report, and it would be silly to do so if nobody is actively using it. Conversely, removing the report would simplify some underlying parts of Koha, which makes for a less bug-prone Koha! Please let me know!
