Description Barton Chittenden 2015-05-05 17:58:05 UTC
Created attachment 38871 [details]
SAMPLE ISSUESLIP (may be used for testing).

The field <<issues.date_due>> will not display in the ISSUESLIP or ISSUEQSLIP notices, when printed inside <checkedout> or <overdue> tags.

Steps to replicate:

1) Go to tools->notices and slips, edit ISSUESLIP for all branches.
2) Put the following text in the EMAIL template:

<checkedout>
Checked out: Date Due: <<issues.date_due>>
</checkedout>

<overdue>
Overdue: Date Due: <<issues.date_due>>
</overdue>

3) Set the following fields in ISSUESLIP (I don't know that any of these matter)
   Name: Issue Slip
   HTML Message: [checked]
   Message Subject: Issue Slip
4) Check out an item
5) Click Print Issue Slip

You will see that the issue slip does not print issues.date_due

the same problem affects ISSUEQSLIP.

Note that items.onloan *will* print correctly; this is an acceptable work-around.
Comment 2 Christopher Brannon 2015-05-14 18:01:16 UTC
Barton,
Does this affect only those two slips, or does it affect any notices as well?

This is acceptable if you are not using hourly loans.  items.onloan does not display the time.

I can't reproduce this issue on current master. The due date prints fine for me including the due time. 

Can you please specify the exact version this occurs and if you still see it happen?

These are my templates:

ISSUESLIP
<h3><<branches.branchname>></h3>
Checked out to <<borrowers.title>> <<borrowers.firstname>> <<borrowers.initials>> <<borrowers.surname>> <br />
(<<borrowers.cardnumber>>) <br />

<<today>><br />

<h4>Checked Out</h4>
<checkedout>
<p>
<<biblio.title>> <br />
Barcode: <<items.barcode>><br />
Date due: <<issues.date_due>><br />
</p>
</checkedout>

<h4>Overdues</h4>
<overdue>
<p>
<<biblio.title>> <br />
Barcode: <<items.barcode>><br />
Date due: <<issues.date_due>><br />
</p>
</overdue>

<hr>

<div class="newsitem">

I did some more tests - this problem appears in 3.18.6, but is fixed on the current 3.18.x branch, that will be 3.18.7.

Katrin,
Please confirm with master.  I am in 3.22, and I see that issues.date_due is producing a date, but I do not see a time stamp.  Shouldn't this value produce a timestamp for hourly loans, or do hourly loans have to be turned on in order for it to produce a time stamp?

Comment 8 Christopher Brannon 2017-03-13 14:45:56 UTC
On further inspection, it appears that in 3.22.8, issues.date_due shows the date but not the time.  In master, I see that issues.date_due includes the time as well.  Can't find the bug that changed this.
Comment 9 Katrin Fischer 2017-03-14 11:14:25 UTC
Maybe something to check: check if the time shows if you do an hourly loan with the time not bing 23:59 - we might just not show the time in this case.
