            Bug ID: 13666
           Summary: Allow SIP2 checkin/checkout to get branch from
                    institution_id field AO
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: SIP2

Although SIP2 specifies the required AO field to be institution_id and it
doesn't neccessarily map to a branch in Koha, this is probably the case for
most.

Allowing for AO to set the C4::Context->userenv->{branch} transaction-time
would open up for a more flexible transaction scenario:

- SIP2 connections could fetch from a pool of connections, so e.g. ten SIP2
workers could easily serve hundreds of clients
- SIPConfig.xml would not need reconfiguration each time a new client is added

Please advise if this is in collision with other SIP2 logic in Koha
