Description Owen Leonard 2012-03-26 14:28:34 UTC
If you are creating a new subscription at serials/subscription-add.pl and click the link to "create biblio," the add biblio process happening in that pop-up window isn't tailored to the subscription create process.

Ideally, after saving the new biblio the window would close and the subscription add form would be populated with the new biblionumber. I assume this would have to be done by passing a parameter from the add subscription page so that the addbiblio.pl save process can be redirected.

This is still valid for current master.
Comment 2 Martin Renvoize 2023-07-28 09:37:29 UTC
Still an issue?
Comment 3 Katrin Fischer 2023-10-29 11:54:07 UTC
I just tested this and the biblionumber was not sent back to the form when closing the window.

1) Add new subscription
2) Create record link
3) Downloaded a record from Z39.50
4) Fixed errors
5) Saved
6) Went to item form, instead of closing
7) Closing window manually - biblionumber remains empty.

If this is not supposed to work, maybe we should open the cataloguing form in a new tab instead.
