https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35766 Bug ID: 35766 Summary: Allow staff to adjust privacy settings for patron Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master 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 Okay, right off the bat, let me make this clear. I am not asking for staff to control whether they can see patron history. What I am asking is for a setting to allow staff to set the privacy setting for the patron. We have need for our homebound patrons to retain history so that the check for previous checkouts works. Some, if not most, of the homebound patrons may not be tech savvy enough to go into their account and turn this on. We can default the homebound patron to retain this setting, but we have no way within the patron account to flip the switch for existing patrons. I am pretty sure this was by design. If it is of concern, a compromise might be to have a "Request to turn on history" email sent to the patron, in which they can click a link to confirm consent. Maybe also a reject, in which the link to request in the patron account would show the date the request was last rejected. Staff would have the option to request again, and if rejected again, the date would be updated. Thoughts? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 40795] New: Fix +add note function on payment table

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40795 Bug ID: 40795 Summary: Fix +add note function on payment table Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: Fines and fees Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: jheltibridle(a)rcplib.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Now that bug 23674 allows notes on all transactions in the transactions table, the +Add note function in the payments table can cause some additional confusion. In the payments table (pay.pl) you can click on +Add Note, but the note can't be saved unless you pay the fine in the payment screen. The same note can now be edited or saved in the transactions table in 25.05. Steps to duplicate issue: 1. Go to a patron with outstanding fines/fees 2. Go to the Make a payment tab 3. In the payments table, click +Add Note for a transaction 4. Type a note. 5. Note that there is no way to save the edit. 6. Press enter on the note, Koha takes you to the payment screen, where the changes are shown, but you must pay the fine to save the change. 7. Go to the transactions tab in 25.05. 8. Click edit and type a note and confirm 8. Go to Make a payment tab and see the note you added. The note will look like it is selected for additional editing. I would like to either see this column become uneditable (so you have to edit it in the transactions table) or have it function the same as the transactions table (have an edit button that opens a popup to edit the note). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It would be better if both forms would be consistent. To test: - Add at least one additional field for subscriptions that is searchable - Go to the serials module start page - Confirm the search form doesn't show the additional field - Click on the "More options" icon at the end of the top search bar - Click on the "Advanced search" link - Confirm that the additional fields display on this form. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

However, if one marks an item as lost and has MarkLostItemAsReturned enabled, the issue will be ended without an overdue fine being calculated. We should add the option to calculate an overdue fine at the moment of marking an item lost. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Instead, let's provide a CLI tool that we can more easily test and update without touching debian/koha-common.postinst directly. It should hopefully simplify maintenance. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
