[Koha-devel] Impossible to register on Koha site

[Peter Mwangi]

Dear Collegues,

 

 

My library purchased a Gryphon M100 433Mhz and opticon scanners which
we've been using to scan barcodes at the library's circulation desk.
Here are examples of Barcodes numbers generated by our software vendor;

 

            

 

 

           

 

           

 

 

The library has a collection of 40,000 volumes. A few months ago we
decided to migrate to Koha and I have already loaded all the records in
Koha. However, it seems the barcodes in Alice Graduate 6.0 were entered
as R110483232, R493213232, R004053232. This means the letters M, N and Y
were ignored. The current challenge I have is how I could configure the
gryphon M100 scanner to ignore the letters. If not, are there changes I
could do in koha to ignore the 7th digit? All I am trying to avoid is to
manually type the 7th Digit for the 40,000+ volumes!

 

 

 

Kindly help.
