Some libraries have wishlists for their patrons. The library manually keeps track of items that patrons are interested in and emails them when the item is in circulation. This bug is to add the ability for Koha to automate that notification process.

This notice already exists for when items attached to purchase suggestions are available but this would be useful to libraries who don't allow purchase suggestions or to notify patrons that an item is available that is being added to collection separate from the acquisition process.

How is a wishlist different from a purchase suggestion? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

Staff can make purchase suggestions on behalf of the patrons so I would primarily use the features that already exists. I suggest that the staff makes the purchase suggestions and use the feature to notify patrons when their wish has come true. :)

+1 Not sure how well known that is yet, but since a little while ago you can switch the status to "AVAILABLE" in the suggestions module. So you can use that notification without having to use the acq module. bug 37588 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
