[Bug 41876] New: Restrict the numbering patterns available for a subscription based on its frequency
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41876 Bug ID: 41876 Summary: Restrict the numbering patterns available for a subscription based on its frequency Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Serials Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: mathsabypro@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org It would be useful to restrict the numbering patterns available for a subscription based on its frequency, in order to facilitate subscription management (saving time and limiting errors). E.g, if monthly frequency, display only monthly numbering patterns -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41876 --- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- I am sorry, but I don't think this can work as suggested. Numbering patterns have no indicator to tell you if they are monthly or not. And we can't look for "12" as we don't know: - which variable it might appear in - frequency might be monthly, but only 10 issues (counter is 10) and some irregularities recorded - frequency might be monthly, but there are 2 6 issue cycles a year and the numbering goes 1-6, 1-6 for each The current system is very flexible, but it makes it really hard to limit the pull down like you suggest. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41876 --- Comment #2 from Mathieu Saby <mathsabypro@gmail.com> --- Thanks for your feedback! The KohaLa association is considering funding a development, but we have not yet requested a cost estimate. Here are the specifications we have been working on. Does this seem realistic to you? - add an optional "frequency" field to the numbering pattern: each pattern can now be linked to a frequency (to be selected from a drop-down list). If the field remains empty, no usage restrictions will be applied to the pattern (maintaining current behavior). - When modifying or creating a subscription, only display numbering pattern that correspond to the subscription's periodicity and pattern for which no usage restrictions have been set. - When a subscription is modified the consistency of the data between the frequency and numbering pattern fields must be checked before validation, and an alert must be displayed in the event of inconsistency. E.g.: if a monthly subscription (with a numbering model that can only be used for monthly subscriptions) becomes quarterly, the librarian will have to modify the numbering model. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41876 --- Comment #3 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- I understand where this comes from - the list of numbering patterns can easily get quite long and hard to manage if you don't stick to strict internally agreed naming conventions. I think what you suggest would make it an optional feature, so it would not mean a regression for libraries and might prove useful. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
