            Bug ID: 10409
           Summary: Do not show course entry form if no departments are
                    found
    Classification: Unclassified
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
               URL: /cgi-bin/koha/course_reserves/course.pl
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: Course reserves
          Assignee: koha-bugs at lists.koha-community.org
          Reporter: oleonard at myacpl.org

The course reserves entry form shows an error message instead of a form field
for the department if no departments are defined: "No DEPARTMENT authorised
values found! Please create one or more authorised values with the category
DEPARTMENT."

If you can't fill out the form because there are no departments, there's no
reason to display the form. Otherwise people might fill in the rest of the
fields and find they can't submit the form.

It would be better to show the error message alone on the page and link the
user to the authorized values page.
