[Bug 1782] Patron Types VS Categories
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1782 ------- Comment #1 from cnighswonger@foundations.edu 2008-01-22 05:04 ------- Hrmm... either I really misunderstand the type/category logic or it is broken. It appears that after creating two categories of type "Staff" the five hard-coded types alone show up when adding a new patron. So I select type "Adult" and lower on the resulting form I am presented with the opportunity to select a category for this patron of one of the five types. Since I only have categories under type "Staff" I am limited to selecting one of those. This is expected. What becomes confusing is the fact that I can create a patron of type "Child" and select a category of type Adult/AC-FACULTY which is a category for faculty members of a k-12 academy. So the question appears: Is the patron now a member of both the "Child" type and the "Adult" type? It appears to me (and I may be misunderstanding here) that categories should be a subfield of type (ie. type.category) and that the patron ought to be a member of a category so that we have type.category.patron. The way it stands it appears that patron is a member of both type and category and that category is a member of type as well. Am I totally off here? If so, please feel free to correct me. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.
