http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12363 Bug ID: 12363 Summary: Marking an item as lost in koha always returns it, but longoverdue.pl may not Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: gmcharlt@gmail.com Reporter: kyle@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org The cronjob script longoverdue.pl has a switch --mark-returned which controls if an item is returned when marked as lost. As such, by default items are *not* returned when lost by longoverdue.pl, and at the same time, *are* returned when marked as lost from the staff intranet. In the past, marking an item as lost from additem.pl would not return the item, but doing so from moredetail.pl, so librarians had at least some control over having and item returned when lost. An update to additem.pl now causes all ways to mark an item as lost from the staff intranet. This behavior makes little sense. The flag behavior should be moved to a system preference. An upgrade path is problematic though. We could have longoverdue.pl set the system preference value based on the --marked-returned flag on each run. That would allow upgrades to work without intervention. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
