http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3270 Summary: Cancelling a hold request after transfer initiated orphans item Product: Koha Version: HEAD Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 Component: Circulation AssignedTo: galen.charlton@liblime.com ReportedBy: rch@liblime.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Change sponsored?: --- Koha fails to direct a user to return an item to its home library if the hold request that initiated a transfer is canceled before it is filled. Checking that item in at its holding location simply reports 'not checked out'. Furthermore, if this item is checked in at any other location, no 'forced transfer' entry is created in branchtransfers. This is with HomeOrHoldingBranch set to 'holdingbranch'. If HomeOrHoldingBranch is set to 'homebranch', then the checkin is disallowed and the user is directed to return the item to its home library ( but no transfer is initiated, no slip to print ). This exposes a needed enhancement, allowing certain items to float between locations, which is certainly a desired feature. However, I think the default behavior should be to prompt the user to return the item to its home location if homebranch != holdingbranch and no outstanding holds exist. Steps to recreate: 1 place a hold on an item, with pickup library != item home library. 2 check in the item, initiating transfer to pickup library 3 cancel the hold 4 check in item at pickup library. Wonder what you should do. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
