[Koha-devel] Biblio, BiblioItems and Items

[nitesh rijal]

I think that...Biblionumber is given only for records, so biblioitems holds
all the entries of the records. One record can be of one itemtype, so books,
cd/dvd, reference all are entered in the biblioitems.

But the items table holds the list of items in a record. That's why unless
you add an item in the record, it doesnot show in the items table. Moreover,
items can be itemtypes other than the parent record.

I think this is what you wanted to know. And this is what I think it is.

Thank you.
