Hi John, itemBarcodeFallbackSearch allows you to checkout items without knowing their barcode, but you still need to assign a barcode to the items as Koha can't check the items out internally without one.
You could consider using the AutoBarcode for new items and update the existing items with a unique value. If your barcodes are not long and unique you could use them or maybe the itemnumber assigned by Koha. That would be doable with an SQL update if there are a lot of items without barcode. But maybe try to add a barcode to the item you are testing with and see if the process works for you then first :) Hope this helps, Katrin On 14.04.23 03:12, John J. English wrote:
Hello, I'm trying configure my Koha instance so that can process a checkout on books that do not have barcodes associated with them. I've tried enabling <itemBarcodeFallbackSearch> but it isn't working. When I click "Show matching titles" I get an empty model that says: Barcode not found. The following items were found by searching: There's nothing in the model, even though I know the book is in the catalog. I've tried reindexing Zebra, but it didn't help. Any advice is very much appreciated. Thank you. JOHN J.
