https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41471 Bug ID: 41471 Summary: Deprecate IndependentBranches system preference in favor of library group enhancements Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: System Administration Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: katrin.fischer(a)bsz-bw.de QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com I suggest to add a deprecation note to the system preference and maybe a coding guideline as well to start phasing out the IndependentBranches system preference in favor of pushing the development for library groups and related features instead. The IndependentBranches have a lot of known holes and problems, see bug 12599. I think if we can agree to start removing it, we could tackle the features it brings separately and improve them to be better, more flexible and more granular in configuration - not being an all or nothing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[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.

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).
