It would be better if the mechanism to determine whether an item "floats" or not occurred at the itemtype/homebranch level in the circ rules. Often, any given library will have it's Special Stuff that it will lend, but always want returned home. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

As such you are welcome to send a counter patch. But I do not think that it is harmful to accept this patch and extend it later. It will change no existing behaviour without turning the systempreference on.

Hence my interest in the generalization. A patch is forthcoming that should meet both our needs, and we can hopefully soon get rid of HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn entirely. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

This patch adds a new column (returnbranch) to the default_circ_rules, default_branch_item_rules, default_branch_circ_rules and branch_item_rules tables, after the 'holdsallowed' column. While this is coded as a varchar(15), the only currently supported values are 'homebranch', 'holdingbranch', 'noreturn' and NULL. On upgrade, the value of HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn is used to populate the global default (which is stored in default_circ_rules.returnbranch). To access this value, use C4::Circulation::GetBranchItemRule. This subroutine is altered to supply an additional key, "returnbranch", containing this value (or 'homebranch' as a default). No existing usage of GetBranchItemRule should need to be modified. The use of HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn is removed in AddReturn to instead use this subroutine. This will determine, on a more granular level, where the item should be transferred, after all is said and done. If 'noreturn' is specified, then the material will remain at the branch doing the checking in. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

Documentation: * floating collection settings need to be added to the help descriptions on the page. You're perfectly right.
And I'd like to have more details about how to test this feature. Here is my thought: * I must have a branch called "Floating Collection" (FC, or anything else) * "floating" items have homebranch=FC * in circ rules, for branch LIB (my main branch), i'll set: - homebranch = if I want the item to be returned to his home branch - holdingbranch = if I want the item to be returned to his holdingbranch (in case of a book homebranch=BranchA, checked out at= BranchB, checked in at = BranchC) - no return = the book stays where it has been returned Some questions: * what does NULL mean ? in the circ rules ? * which combinations of branch_transfer_limit have you tested ?

I'm not sure what these questions mean - perhaps Ian can answer these questions.

All it does is move the AutomaticItemReturn system preference to a branch/itemtype level. This allows you to specify whether certain kinds of materials (like DVDs) return to either the homebranch or holdingbranch, or, for cheap paperbacks not worth the transportation costs, if they "float" (which means remain at the branch at which they were returned). A NULL value in the returnbranch field of the circ rules, or in fact any value that's not "homebranch" or "holdingbranch", will result in the item floating. We hardcode "noreturn" in the system preferences to be explicit, but if somewhere we to manually edit the data or some error were to creep in, that's what the system would default to. This code interacts with Branch Transfer Limits the exact same way that AutomaticItemReturn did; again, this just moves the logic from a global syspref to a branch/itemtype configurable rule. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Currently, this means hold policies. The various policies have the following effects: From any library: Patrons from any library may put this item on hold. (default if none is defined) From home library: Only patrons from the item's home library may put this book on hold. No holds allowed: No patron may put this book on hold. Note that if the system preference AllowHoldPolicyOverride is enabled, these policies can be overridden by your circulation staff. Also, these policies are based on the patron's home library, not the library where the hold is being placed.. There's not reference to return policy. It's worth adding some documentation for it. And, more specifically, how it interfere with the "Default checkout, checkin and hold policy for Branch 1" which one is used first if both are specified ? Note that in my follow-up, there's also a small addition to the documentation of the default rules section (the 2nd one, just after the main rules) - <h3>Default checkout and hold policy for [% IF ( humanbranch ) %][% humanbranch %][% ELSE %]all libraries[% END %]</h3> - <p>You can set a default maximum number of checkouts and hold policy that will be used if none is defined below for a particular item type or category.</p> + <h3>Default checkout, checkin and hold policy for [% IF ( humanbranch ) %][% humanbranch %][% ELSE %]all libraries[% END %]</h3> + <p>You can set a default maximum number of checkouts, hold policy and checkin policy that will be used if none is defined below for a particular item type or category.</p> Please: * signoff my follow-up * add a small follow-up to document the default itemtype checkin policy & how it interfere with the default one (switch back to passed QA when it's done) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It seems odd to require a separate item type for floating items that are really Books, Audiobooks, etc. For example, at the Crawford County Federated Library System, there are a number of 'rotating collections'. The books and audiobooks move from from one library to the next each month. I have written a rotating collections feature for them that lets the librarian's create 'collections' of items, and set what branch the collection is currently at. Koha currently tracks who owns and item, and where an item is at, but not where an item should be. For example, Collection1 is at LibraryA, and is now to be moved to LibraryB. It my system, a librarian simply goes into the rotating collections system and changes the current library for Collection1 from LibraryA to LibraryB. LibraryA then packs up all the items that are currently on the shelf and ships them to LibraryB. When any books in Collection1 that are currently circulating are checked in, the librarian recieves a notice that the item is part of a rotating collection and should be transferred to LibraryB immediately. Could this feature be used to replicate this scenario? If not, I would be more than happy to open a bug and submit my rotating collections code. I suppose rotating collections are different than floating collections in how they behave. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7144 --- Comment #27 from Ian Walls <koha.sekjal@gmail.com> --- This code works off of item type because item types are the "What" parameter in circulation rules ("where" being branch, and "who" being patron category"). Collection codes to not factor into circulation rules, and I don't believe they should. If you need materials to have a different set of behaviours, assign them different item types. If that set of types isn't what you'd want your users to search on, that's okay, Collection Code can be used for searching instead. Rotating Collections wouldn't be well covered by this code; as you say, we need to track not only who owns a material and where it currently is, but where it should be. If you abstract this a little further, we could have "temporary" item information of any kind. This would support Course Reserves, in that materials could have their item types and shelving locations changed for the term, then reverted back. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I could test and make this patch work ! Patch pushed, but 2 questions: * the string for items returned by patrons is usually "check in" in Koha (see mainpage.pl for example). Here, it's "return". Should it be fixed for consistency or is it an english subtilty i'm missing ? * I'm not sure that the "all libraries" rule work. I could make the feature working by entering "item float" for a given library. Maybe I made something wrong, maybe it's how it's supposed to work, explanation welcomed ;-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Not being a native speaker I'm subtlety resistant myself. My train of thoughts was: - "Check in" branch is where an item is *returned by the borrower* (checked-in); "Return" branch is where the item is supposed to be stored, ie *returned by the receiving librarian* - The original syspref was named "HomeOrHoldingBranchReturn". I could have named it "BranchReturn", but "ReturnBranch" somehow appealed more.
* I'm not sure that the "all libraries" rule work. I could make the feature working by entering "item float" for a given library. Maybe I made something wrong, maybe it's how it's supposed to work, explanation welcomed ;-)
I'm not sure what particular rule/operation you are referring to. Can you please tell me what to do to duplicate the issue. Also, I've found a small bug there, will create a follow up -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Ahh...the circulation and fines rules page. I'm seeing the "Item floats" return policies now. Interesting... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
