[Bug 34674] New: Add ability for library staff to fill a hold with a specific item
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=34674 Bug ID: 34674 Summary: Add ability for library staff to fill a hold with a specific item Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Hold requests Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: nick@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com Sometimes a library may acquire a new copy of a book, or have a book in hand that could more easily fill a hold than the current item Koha has selected. Currently, librarians need to cancel and replace or revert a hold to enable them to fill the hold with the desired item. We should add a button on the holds tables that allows staff, with permission, to scan a barcode and fill a hold directly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Can you explain the use case a bit more? Why would a return not trigger the hold for the item?
The vagaries of cataloging often result in separate bibs for items that are functionally equivalent. For example, if a library maintain distinct bib records for different formats of the same work (paperback/hardcover/etc), the library may want to fill the hold with an available item on a different bib than was originally requested. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
