RFC: 'Edit-Items' staff permission
Hi All, What does anyone think about changing the current 'edit-catalogue' permission into 2 separate permissions? An 'edit-catalogue' permission, and a 'edit-items' permssion. The idea behind this is to give the Koha Administrator the ability to: 1) allow some staff accounts to make changes to a catalog record at both the bib-level and item-level 2) restrict some staff accounts to make changes to a catalog record at the item-level *only* I have already made a mod for a koha3-beta2 install to do this, and its a pretty small and safe mod. I'll work on this tomorrow to get it working with Galen's newer permissions stuff in HEAD and send over the patch. Does this sound like a feature we can get included in koha3-beta3? Cheers, Mason. _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
You know, I have to go do training tomorrow and they have one staff member who they only want editing items - this sounds like the perfect fit for them. Just thought I'd chime in :) Nicole On Tue, May 13, 2008 at 10:46 AM, Mason James <mason.loves.sushi@gmail.com> wrote:

Does this sound like a feature we can get included in koha3-beta3 Looks OK for me. But before committing, please test how good is interaction with IndependantBranches system preference.
Will this only be allowed with Galen subpermission system or for any Koha setting ? Cheers. -- Henri-Damien LAURENT _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
