It is already in the workflow of the library. If a client wants to borrow a book, the client places a hold on the title. And then the librarians are notified on this hold. The librarian then will get the book from the shelf and hand it to the user. They wanted to lessen the workflow of the custo

If the library has only one item, you could enforce item level holds via the circulation conditions to achieve the effect you want. Then the user will have to pick an item to put on hold and the information will show. If there are multiple items this will of course mean that only the item picke

Thanks Katrin for your inputs. The library that asked this usually only has one item, hence they asked if it will be possible when a client put a hold on a record and then an item is filled up in the holds, or through some kind of mechanism, the first available item is put in hold, and therefore

Hi, the callnumber and barcode will show up in the holds tab once the hold is waiting or if it's an item level hold. For record level holds Koha can't show them until a specific item has filled the hold. Hope this helps, Katrin On 22.11.2016 07:40, schnydszch wrote: Hi all! I was trying to

Hi all! I was trying to find where in system preference or elsewhere are the barcodes and callnumbers in holds tab of the patrons module are controlled so that they show up in the holds tab. With the current version (16.05) as well as in 3.18 it does not show. I was told previously this does show.
