[Koha] Dewey Number does not show up for Items even though available in 082a Tag.
Hello, I am working with Koha 3.14 on Ubuntu ( installed via packages) I have a strange behaviour, reg- class number display. I am updating Dewey Number in 082a field for a record. and after adding multiple items to the same record, items do not show up Dewey Class number in OPAC or in Normal View. I would like to know, why it is happening? For fixing this, I am doing, edit items in batch and updating dewey once again at full call number for all the items. then it displays in opac. How to avoid this ? Do we have any settings koha? with thanks. Satish MV Librarian Govt.

Re: [Koha] Empty shelves
Hi Paul, Not sure if you've solved this yet--we've been on spring break! I got your report to work by changing the order of the tables joined together. By pulling from authorised_values first (and joining everything to that), you get all possible location values rather than just the ones that appear in biblioitems. Here's a report that worked for me: SELECT authorised_values.authorised_value AS Auth_Location, COUNT(DISTINCT biblioitems.biblionumber) as Quantity FROM authorised_values LEFT JOIN items ON (authorised_values.authorised_value=items.location) LEFT JOIN biblioitems ON (items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber) WHERE authorised_values.category LIKE 'loc' GROUP BY authorised_values.authorised_value HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT biblioitems.biblionumber)=0 --Katelyn.

Re: [Koha] What is a reservoir
However, as a librarian, cache makes more sense to me than reservoir ... As a practicing librarian 'reservoir' is a term that I am so used to ... I think this is a case where we are not going to find an intuitive single term because there are no broadly-experienced analogues. I think our best bet is to make sure the documentation is good, including improving in-page help if necessary. I don't think changing the term again is going to get us anywhere. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

Re: [Koha] Possible APP development
Hi all. Great to hear Holger! One thing I like about automatic renewals is that you can hook a cronjob into the existing rules and don’t have add any complexity to the circulation rules in the staff interface. I took a quick peek at the RFC and what I have to add is that you might want to ”allow/disallow” that the _patrons_ turn automatic renewals on/off in the opac. I think it in many cases would be more useful to let those that actually need/want the feature use it rather than all issues. At least that’s my view after pondering Tim and Elaines point about people misplacing books :) Another thing to add to the wishlist could be a message to send when an automatic renewal is made (defined in letter.pl). Something like ”Hi! The loan ’Learning Perl’ that was due today was automatically renewed and is now due date X. Kind regards/The Library” could help people remeber to keep track of their loans. I do like Tims idea about using automatic renewals for people with certain zipcodes, but I think it might be better to use it like ”Use rule X with all patrons meeting this criteria”. This could be useful for all sorts of granular permissions but seems (to me) like a quite big RFC in it’s own right. And it would create all sorts of interesting problems.

Re: [Koha] Dewey Number does not show up for Items even though available in 082a Tag.
Dear Sir I also face the same problem when I imported the bulk records. The only solution that time I found was to update the mrc file by editing tag number 082a with 952$o. I hope we can do the same thing from phpmyadmin directly by command, If anyone from the group helps.

Re: [Koha] Dewey Number does not show up for Items even though available in 082a Tag.
Dear Satish, Tag 082a stores content of class number of bibliographic record. Tag 952o stores contens of class numbr of items attached to bibliographic record. At the time of import, it is advisble to import class number data at both tags, 082 and 952. This is a major reason that many times only catalogue record gets imported and item (holding) details such as class number are not imported. Further, all item details should appear in one single line record at the time of import using MARCEDIT. If it appears on separate line, item data on each line will be imported as separate item. -- Mr. Mahesh M. Angadi, Librarian, Model College, Dombivli (E).
