https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=21648 Bug ID: 21648 Summary: Patron Merge needs more flexibility and transparency Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 18.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrew@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle.m.hall@gmail.com The patron merge tool introduced in 18.05 is a great step, but creates some issues. Contact information for the discarded patron is lost even when the kept patron has null values for those fields. Merging patrons with additional patron attributes results in a patron with multiple values for an attribute that is not supposed to be repeatable. The screen that confirms the merge has completed reports counts of transferred data but doesn't allow one to see details of what was transferred from the discarded patron to the kept patron. A good next step here would be an interface similar to what we see when merging bibs -- the opportunity to see values for both patron records and select which will be carried forward to the final record, at least for all fields in the borrowers table and for additional patron attributes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
