Hi all, As things stand in the current HEAD, borrowers.userid is constrained by memberentry.pl code to be unique preventing duplicate userids. The import_borrowers.pl script does *not* enforce this restraint thus introducing the possibility of duplicate userids. Most AAA systems with which I am familiar prohibit the use of duplicate userids. I believe that this constraint should be enforced at the database level in Koha. Making this change will also ensure that the constraint is honored by custom patron import utilities/interfaces.
The only fallout I can see from this change would occur if an existing database was already populated with duplicate userids. This would, of course, have to be addressed with some sort of custom foo in order to enable the change to be applied to the db schema. What are your thoughts on this?
