[Bug 17437] New: Advanced cataloging editor - editing the 001 field overwrites data

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17437 Bug ID: 17437 Summary: Advanced cataloging editor - editing the 001 field overwrites data Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 3.22 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com Reporter: jzairo(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy(a)rijksmuseum.nl In the Advanced Cataloging Editor, when you add any data to the beginning of the 001 tag it types over the data already entered in the field. For example, adding the 'ocn' prefix to OCLC numbers in the advanced editor overwrites the first 3 digits of the OCLC number, causing you to reenter the data. In the basic editor you can enter data in the 001 without it overwriting an current data in the field. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Currently, this is not something that can be edited, therefore, a librarian would have to remove the entire transaction to edit the note. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Now it is impossible to catch reports if sms was succesfully sent or it failed since we can't pass the message_id to our report url when sending the message to the gateway. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 32403] New: On Demand Messaging

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32403 Bug ID: 32403 Summary: On Demand Messaging Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: new feature Priority: P5 - low Component: Notices Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: christofer.zorn(a)ajaxlibrary.ca QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org We are a library that relies on both email messaging (through Koha) along with SMS and Phone messaging (through Twilio). We are very happy with the messaging features involved in Koha, but for me, there is something missing that could be improved. With the right system permissions, we'd like to see the ability to generate on demand messages to specific patrons, or even tailored messages to groups. While I understand that this isn't specifically what Koha is meant for, there are wider benefits to this that I think warrant a discussion. This is a means of interacting with a patron. While individual email is normally an option, in a mid to larger sized system where multiple staff can reply to a communal message, Koha has a tracking mechanism that would allow staff to see what information was sent to a patron by looking at the Notice tab. This could also morph into a marketing aspect of Koha where we could leverage the history and make this similar to Patron Point. Symphony has an on demand message sending tool, however from what I remember it was spotty. The tweak would be creating an interface that allowed inputting of information into the messaging table ... Please let me know if this is possible. Our library has had the need for this a couple of times, where we could take one last stab at reaching out to expired patrons (beyond what Koha is already doing), or communicating back to a patron through SMS when leaving a voicemail isn't an option.

[Bug 31572] New: E-mail and SMS verification

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31572 Bug ID: 31572 Summary: E-mail and SMS verification Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 21.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com I believe Koha has a basic level of e-mail verification with patrons that self register, but it would be helpful if there were a verification method for e-mail and SMS on both staff and patron sides. The idea is, that when an e-mail address or SMS number is entered by staff or patron, there would be a button next to each that would say something like 'Verify'. Staff or patron would click the button, and a link is sent to the e-mail address or number with an explanation (instantly, not through a queue). If the patron clicks the link within a specified amount of time, the button next to that address or number goes away, replaced by the word 'Verified!'. Until the number or address is verified, notices will not go through that method. Notices would only go out through methods that are setup and verified. A step further would be to have another button next to it on the staff side that would be something like 'Re-verification Request'. If staff get bounced e-mails or texts, it would put the address or phone number back to a verification needed mode, and stop all notifications through that method until verified again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 30166] New: SMS Number

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=30166 Bug ID: 30166 Summary: SMS Number Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com Having worked with two variations of SMS Delivery, I think we could simplify SMS setup for the staff/patron. Instead of just filling in a phone number, what if the SMS number gave the following options: 1) Use the primary number 2) Use the secondary number 3) Provide a unique number. The third option could reveal a new text box to put a number in. Honestly though, I think we could get by with just using the primary or secondary number fields. I also think that in the SMS setup, you could select from popular services, and have Koha format the number as needed. If using e-mail, it strips out all non-numbers and checks that the number is the correct length. If Twilio, it makes sure number is stripped of non-numbers and +1 or whatever is added to the beginning. Since different countries have different formats, and phone numbers can be entered in various ways, maybe we could have a custom regex entered to reformat according to your specific uses. The approach that we currently use here is that we have an example format in the SMS number field, and I created an icon to copy the primary phone number, stripping non-numbers and adding a +1 to the beginning. I added another icon to clear the field. It has improved the process vastly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
