https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=38892 Bug ID: 38892 Summary: Patron category 'can be a guarantee' means that same category cannot be a guarantor (bis) Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: caroline.cyr-la-rose@inlibro.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle.m.hall@gmail.com I think this was not completely fixed in bug 37892. When adding a patron, you cannot choose a guarantor with the same category. To recreate: 1, Go to Patrons 2. Click 'New patron' > 'Kid' 3. Fill out surname and cardnumber 4. Under Patron guarantor, click Add guarantor 5. Search for category = Kid and choose one of the patrons 6. Choose the relationship 7. Click 'Save' --> Error A guarantor cannot be a guarantee. This patron is not a guarantor. This error does not make sense. ***Note that it also blocks editing a patron that has the same category as their guarantor when coming from an upgrade!*** I think this a major, if not critical. I get that the example with 'Kid' does not make much sense, but I just wanted to avoid having to go into patron categories to change the 'Patron' category for example to 'can be guarantee' and make the example with two 'Patron' patrons. Not all libraries classify their patrons with kid/adult. It might be resident/non-resident for example, and a resident parent could have a resident guarantee. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
