Summary: Duplicate records are being added even after duplicate
is found
Product: Koha
Version: branch 2.4
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P2
Component: Acquisitions (Simple)
AssignedTo: jmf at kados.org
ReportedBy: oleonard at athenscounty.lib.oh.us
QAContact: koha-bugs at nongnu.org
Our catalogers report that there is a problem with Koha's duplicate-checking in
addbiblio.pl. According to their report, when a duplicate record is suspected,
Koha displays an error message (correctly), and offers a link to the suspected
duplicate:
Is this a duplicate of [link to existing record title]?
You must either :
* If it is a duplicate, Edit Items of the existing record.
* If not, click to Confirm it's not a duplicate
>From this screen the catalogers click the link to the existing record in order
to edit that record and add a new item. However, they report that the record
that they originally entered (which was found to be a duplicate) is still
added. This results in many orphaned duplicate records with no items attached.
