In other words, if this is the case, this patch is invalid. However, I'm leaving this bug open for discussion for the moment -- since both Tomas and I ended up with the same misconception that it should be possible to put open baskets into a group, others might have the same view. This suggests to me that there might be a use case for being able to put baskets in a group before they get closed. Even if that's not the case, it also suggests that the heading for the ungrouped baskets widget might be better as "Ungrouped closed baskets". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Galen,

I have to admit that I am clueless about the point of a basket group in the first place. That said, you are correct (and the manual is correct) basket groups are only for closed baskets. You add them to the basket group when you close the basket - it's a question you're asked upon closing.

If someone can explain to me why I'd want/need a basket group in the first place I might be able to say if we should have groups created before closing as well ... but right now I can come up with no reason.

I guess it has to be related to printing. It looks like the only thing you can do with closed basket groups is print them. Regards To+ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.

You can print a 3 page layout that include a kind of 'table of contents' of the basket group and then each basket on the following pages. Or you can have a 2 page layout that, which leaves out the toc and maks sense if you only want to print 1 order per PDF.I think it's now also possible to export CSV data, that will include the basket group information. I found this post form Paul explaining some about the workflow: http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2013-September/037276.html My feeling is that if we allow adding non-closed baskets to the basket group, they should probably be closed in the process. You can ungroup a basket from its basket group. So ungrouped closed baskets should probably show up, but not totally sure about the open baskets. Some of our libraries have expressed interest in PDF printing, but the PDF will have to be translated and maybe reformatted, which is currently not an easy task. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
