http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15480 Bug ID: 15480 Summary: Number of issues displayed by prediction pattern test and setting of not published issues Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Serials Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: koha@univ-lyon3.fr QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: colin.campbell@ptfs-europe.com May be this post could have been added to bug 15148 and 15149, but it's seen here under a different aspect, so I opened a new bug. By now the number of issues displayed by prediction pattern test is related to the number set in "subscription length". But sometimes when a serial has predictable not published issues to be set on the prediction pattern checkboxes, this behaviour can make it impossible : Imagine a weekly serial that has only 46 issues a year, say it's not published in August and during the last 2 weeks of december. Initially, you would be tempted to set the number of issues to 46, but then, the last november and the december issues will not be displayed by the prediction pattern test and so you will not be able to check all the not published issues.
From what I experienced, you can set the issues number to the standard 52, and if the WhenMoreThan parameter of numbering pattern is correctly set to 46, it will be ok. But that is not very intuitive and should be at least documented. And may be, it would be preferable to fix automatically this parameter according to periodicity.
