Which feature is that? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35122 --- Comment #3 from Kelly McElligott <kelly@bywatersolutions.com> --- Yes, this would work in the barcode range choice, but the library would have to enter the barcode twice each time, as it requires a 'range'. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Go to the labels module and select New > Barcode range. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Maybe we could adjust the bug description. Are you thinking about something like an input box where the barcodes could be entered/scanned? Maybe single or multiple outside a range? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Oh nice! That's a feature I've wanted for many years. Great to see that in there! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35122 --- Comment #7 from Kelly McElligott <kelly@bywatersolutions.com> --- Katrin, Thanks I have updated the title of the bug. Yes the purpose would be more the ability to print a single barcode or multiple (random not in a batch) barcodes within Koha. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35122 --- Comment #8 from Chris Nighswonger <cnighswonger@foundations.edu> --- Would this feature be just a simple generic barcode printer? Or would this be in conjunction with an existing bib record? I guess I'm wondering how this feature is relevant to Koha as there are a number of other ways to print random barcodes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35122 --- Comment #9 from Kelly McElligott <kelly@bywatersolutions.com> --- Very true! One could create a new process to print labels outside of Koha. However, since a library has created a label template and layout in Koha to print labels- allowing the possibility to do this from Koha would be a time saver! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35122 --- Comment #10 from Chris Nighswonger <cnighswonger@foundations.edu> --- I'm looking for a use case or three. Maybe there are library holdings which are not cataloged, but need a formal label of some sort? Should this new feature allow entry of data other than the barcode to be printed on the resulting label? And/or ... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
