But others are > not so lucky. I imagine this issue hasn't been fixed, because it requires a specific configuration and someone to notice a problem. I believe that for this issue to occur you would need the following config: 0) Set the Shelving Location for an item during 'Add item' (this will populate 'item.location' and 'item.permanent_location' with the LOC authorized value for the shelving location AND - 1a) 'NewItemsDefaultLocation' set to 'PROC' and 'InProcessingToShelvingCart' set to 'ON' OR 1b) 'ReturnToShelvingCart' set to 'ON' - AND 2) Edit the item before checking it (since editing the item will clear 'item.permanent_location' due to a missing Koha => MARC mapping THEN Run 'cart_to_shelf.pl' -- At Prosentient, none of our libraries use any of these system preferences, so it hasn't been an issue. As for other libraries/vendors, I suspect that there could be any number of reasons for a fix not making it here. Either people don't use these preferences, they haven't noticed the problem, or they've created a custom solution that they don't think is appropriate for the community. -- I haven't looked at the code (and I probably won't since it doesn't affect any of my libraries at present), but there's an explanation. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
