[Bug 39535] New: Patron search in patron lists does not work for patrons without cardnumber
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=39535 Bug ID: 39535 Summary: Patron search in patron lists does not work for patrons without cardnumber Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: dcook@prosentient.com.au QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com, kyle.m.hall@gmail.com When you "Add patrons" in a "Patron list", there is a "Patron search" box which does an API search. If the patron found does not have a cardnumber, a "null" value is used instead and adding the patron to the list silently fails. In 2025, many libraries don't use cardnumbers anymore. Cardnumber is also a nullable field in the database, so it does not make sense to use it in lieu of the real patron identifier (ie the borrowernumber). We should be using borrowernumber for this feature. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
