<div>Hi Bob,</div>
<div>Thanks for the tip about sort 1/sort 2 categories. Looks
like it does exactly what I want, but I'll be duplicating
the info in the 'added attribute' parameter only so it shows
up in the patron info sidebar at checkout.</div>

That's an insight, thanks Michael. We have a request afoot to
display those parameters at a couple of places at Circulation. Your
method could make that unnecessary. I'll check it out.<br>

<div>I'm having an issue with editing patron information and
creating new patrons (save button isn't responding), so I'll
test it out once I've worked out how to save and modify my
patrons. (patron list is populated because csv batch import
worked fine, it's individual records I can't create or
modify).</div>

</div>
<div>I have submitted details of the issue to the koha-community
bugzilla page, so I'll hopefully get some answers soon.</div>

I've not come across that one. Do you have any javascript in your
intranetuserjs sys pref that might be misfiring? The user has
permissions for that module?<br>
<br>
OK, I found your <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20680">bz</a>.
Sounds like a bug but if so others should have come across it by
now. I have to move on. Let's see what response you get.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Bob <br>

Hi Michael,<br>
I didn't see that you received a response to this post. If
you did but I <br>
missed it, I'm sorry.<br>
<br>
Defining an additional patron attribute is a valid way of
achieving your <br>
goal. However if it is the only additional attribute you
will have, <br>
there are times it might feel cumbersome. For example,
when you need to <br>
use the parameter in a report, you'll need to join the
additional <br>
attributes table - by no means a game breaker, but a
consideration.<br>
<br>
An alternative approach that some schools have taken is to
use the Sort1 <br>
or Sort2 fields in the borrowers table. You can define
your classes as a <br>
set of Authorised Values for the chosen field if you wish.
And if you <br>
feel the need, you can re-name the field using a little
js.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps, despite the delay.<br>
