Description Katrin Fischer 2011-10-09 22:50:57 UTC
Created attachment 5817 [details]
screenshot of item form in serials

To reproduce:

1) Create a new serial, activate item creation
2) Receive new serial issue, check item form

Problems:
Branches for home and holding branch are not preselected, but empty. This allows so save items without branch codes and can cause a lot of problems.

Just make sure you remember to select them.

Hi Sam, 
yes, the solution is this simple - but people forget all the time. To make it worse this is different from how other parts of Koha work, where you don't have to care about selecting the branches, because your current branch will be preselected. The behaviour should be consistent in all parts and modules of Koha.

Ok, retested on current master. If a library is selected in the subscription, this branch will be preselected when items are created.
