[Bug 40932] New: Automated trigger for invoice closure

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40932 Bug ID: 40932 Summary: Automated trigger for invoice closure Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Acquisitions Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: hdunne-howrie(a)westminster.gov.uk QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org We would like to see the ability to set a trigger for a series of actions that would close an invoice automatically without us manually going into the invoice and ticking close and saving. We want to see a workflow whereby once all items associated to an invoice, when they are all returned for the first time this would trigger a cron job to close the invoice. This would help us to automate our acquisitions checking processes. Currently a staff member has to run a report and check in with staff to make sure they have returned items and then they spend a considerable time checking through for each invoice to make sure items have been physically received and then closing the invoice. If we can automate this last step so that when all items are checked in for the first time, the invoice will automatically close. It would also be useful to have this automatic action as a cron job so that if something goes wrong we could interrupt the next run and correct. Also, the ability to reopen the invoice is also the other failsafe. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 38336] New: Confusion between 099 and 942 field in UNIMARC framework

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=38336 Bug ID: 38336 Summary: Confusion between 099 and 942 field in UNIMARC framework Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: mathsabypro(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy(a)rijksmuseum.nl I believe there is something wrong in UNIMARC default framework (https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/blob/main/installer/data/mysql/en/ma… ) We have 2 fields for "local" data (specific to Koha) at biblio level : 099 and 942 And the same pieces of information are present in subfields of both fields : - 099$x and 942$0 (Number of issues => biblioitems.totalissues) - 099$s and 942$s (Serial record => biblio.serial) - 099$t and 942$c (Koha item type => biblioitems.itemtype) I suppose it is an error, because it makes no sense... And note that the 099 field in UNIMARC framework is called "local dates", so it should not contain information about item type or number of issue. Do you think we could remove safely from the default templates 099$x, 099$s, 099$t ? I don't know if those values may be harcoded somewhere in the code. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

As such, completely denying the utf8 option, which is the default fallback when no format is passed too, breaks the Zotero browser extension.

[Bug 31925] New: AutoCreateAuthorities needs to preserve subject heading thesaurus to not create duplicate authority records
by bugzilla-daemon＠bugs.koha-community.org 12 Jul '26

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31925 Bug ID: 31925 Summary: AutoCreateAuthorities needs to preserve subject heading thesaurus to not create duplicate authority records Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: MARC Authority data support Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: phil(a)chetcolibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: nick(a)bywatersolutions.com Depends on: 30280 Bug 30280 taught the linker that "650 _ 0 $aFeminism" and "650 _ 7 $aFeminism$2sao" are not the same heading, so a bib record containing the latter should not be linked to the authority record which matches the former. However, AutoCreateAuthorities just creates LCSH authority records from anything, no matter what the values of indicator 2 and subfield 2 are. As a result, if you have an LCSH authority record for a term, and you import/create a non-LCSH term in a bib record and save it, AutoCreateAuthorities will create a new duplicate LCSH authority record and link to that. Every single time, a new duplicate. Steps to reproduce: 1. Use ElasticSearch, since the patch for bug 30280 only expected to work there, and in fact broke linking on Zebra, bug 31924. 2. Enable the preferences AutoCreateAuthorities, AutoLinkBiblios, CatalogModuleRelink 3. Edit any bib record, add a 650 tag, set the second indicator to 7, type Feminism in subfield a and type sao in subfield 2. 4. Save the record, edit it again, note the authority record id in subfield 9 of the Feminism heading. 5. Edit any other bib record, add a 650 tag, set the second indicator to 7, type Feminism in subfield a and type sao in subfield 2. 6. Save the record, edit it again, note the authority record id in subfield 9 of the Feminism heading. The two authority record ids should be the same, since the headings are identical, but instead one will be linked to, say, 1708 and the next to 1709, an identical duplicate record. Rather than setting position 11 of field 008 in the authority record to "a" for LCSH, AutoCreateAuthorities should have set it to "z" for Other and put sao in subfield f of field 040 (and for non-7, non-0 values of indicator 2, it should be setting 008/11 to the correct letter for that indicator value).

[Bug 28639] New: Embed see-from headings (from authorities) into bibliographic records at OAI repository level

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=28639 Bug ID: 28639 Summary: Embed see-from headings (from authorities) into bibliographic records at OAI repository level Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Web services Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: julien.sicot(a)univ-rennes2.fr QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Hi, It could be interesting to enrich the bibliographic records exposed in OAI with see-from headings, this would allow users who use koha with a discovery tool to be able to manage, normalize and index some authorities data ? This is something that could be done directly in C4::Biblio::GetMarcBiblio following the same method used for embedding items. We could use an optional parameter like embed_items (embed_seefromheading) and a function similar to C4::Biblio::EmbedItemsInMarcBiblio by reusing what was made for zebra with EmbedSeeFromHeadings (bug #7417).
