[Bug 3472] New: Enhanced borrower notes
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3472 Summary: Enhanced borrower notes Product: Koha Version: rel_3_0 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows 2000 Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: Patrons AssignedTo: gmcharlt@gmail.com ReportedBy: jwagner@ptfs.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Change sponsored?: Sponsored Created an attachment (id=976) --> (http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=976) Borrower message create screenshot Sponsored by East Brunswick Public Library, East Brunswick, NJ, USA and Middletown Public Library, Middletown, NJ, USA. Instead of using the staff/opac notes field in the patron record, this code uses a separate messaging system. It adds a new messages table and allows either free text or pre-defined notes to be added to patron record (for either library staff or patron). For predefined notes, create (if necessary) authorized value BOR_NOTES and add entries (examples: "Bring driver's license next time you come to the library" or "You left your umbrella at the library" etc.). On Checkout tab of patron record, click Add A New Message. Select from pulldown whether it's intended for patron or library staff. You can either use the pulldown for a canned message or enter text in the field. Notes to library staff will show up on patron Checkout tab; notes to patron will show in OPAC. When a message has been created, there will be a link next to it to delete it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I think these boxes should be merged, but I'm not sure how (if?) the messages should be labeled differently. Any suggestions? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3472 --- Comment #5 from Jane Wagner <jwagner@ptfs.com> 2009-09-25 15:02:05 --- As discussed with Owen on the IRC, I'm fine with merging the two OPAC message sections. That would be much cleaner. The other question that came up is whether we still need the patron record opac note field at all. Our discussion on the IRC: <owen> In fact I wonder if there is a reason to continue to use the old OPAC notes mechanism at all <owen> Maybe we should just do away with that part of it? <jwagner> owen, when I started looking at the feature, the distinction I saw between the new messaging feature and the existing circ/opac notes was a question of "permanent" notes. This might not be as much of an issue for opac notes, but it was for circ notes. There's notes you don't ever want to overwrite, like "child has parent's permission for X". So the new feature and the circ notes are both needed, but I don't know if anyone has an equivalent need for "permanent" OPAC notes. <owen> Yeah, I agree. The circ screen would have a need for more permanent notes The question for everyone is, does anyone use the existing opac notes field for any permanent notes, or could it be deleted? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
