reports/reservereport and circ/reserve.pl duplicate
Hi, i'm working on future 2.2.6 and i'm wondering if reports/reservereport.pl (commited by joshua, coming from katipo) and circ/reserve.pl (from hdl) were not the same ? (circ/reserve being more complete from my point of view, and without anything hardcoded) I think yes. (login test/test) http://bureau.paulpoulain.com:9007/cgi-bin/koha/reports/reservereport.pl and : http://bureau.paulpoulain.com:9007/cgi-bin/koha/circ/reserve.pl -- Paul POULAIN et Henri Damien LAURENT Consultants indépendants en logiciels libres et bibliothéconomie (http://www.koha-fr.org)
Though I haven't been able to get the katipo version working on my demo I think it handles transfers between branches -- something that the reserve.pl doesn't. Chris, can you clarify how to set this up properly? Joshua On Mon, Feb 27, 2006 at 05:15:22PM +0100, Paul POULAIN wrote:

I'm glad work is being done on reserve lists, but even with two to choose from I'm not satisfied! Here's the features of the PHP-based reserve list script that we use here: First, the librarian is offered these choices: -- branch (or all branches) -- date: Today, Last 5 Days, or All Dates The reserve list that is generated shows: -- Patron name, card number, and phone number -- Item title, barcode, call number -- Reserve date and destination branch Our list can be reordered by column (title, call no., patron, or date), but the default is ordering by call number. That makes it easy to print out a list and go down the shelves to pull books. What we /can't/ use is a list that doesn't filter by branch and that doesn't limit to current pending reserves on available items. I can see the utility of being able to generate full reports of reserves, but to have the list by default pull up all reserves for all dates and all branches... that doesn't work in real-world situation. Trying to use /circ/reserve.pl with NPL's data crashes my browser because it's such a huge list. We're getting closer with the options on offer, but we're not there yet! -- Owen ---- Nelsonville Public Library http://www.athenscounty.lib.oh.us
