http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11852 Bug ID: 11852 Summary: Scripted processes Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon@cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle.m.hall@gmail.com Here is a lofty wish... I wish Koha could have the ability to have scripted processes. For example. We don't have holds waiting automatically expire (meaning it wasn't picked up, not to be confused with a patron set expiration on the request), simply for the sake that we don't want available items on the hold shelf unless it has been processed. For us, this means, after 7 days waiting without being picked up, we pull the item, we go into the patron account the item was waiting for and put a message on the account that the item was not picked up. We then cancel the hold and check the item in to trigger the next hold or transfer back to the home library. It would be a dream to be able to create link to a script that would do all of this. For example, we would have a link in the Circulation menu to a script called "Process expired holds". We then scan the item, and the script puts the "Not picked up" message in the patron account, cancels the existing hold for that patron, and checks the item in to trigger the next hold or transfer on that item. I could see this working if there were a way to pass on these tasks to Koha like events. Maybe through URLs. I don't know. But, it would be wonderful in streamlining processes.
