Description Nick Clemens 2016-02-26 21:13:21 UTC
Currently you can enter info for a guarantor without linking it to an account, however, you cannot see this info on the details page.  If we can save it, we should show it.

I can see the improvement with your patch, but isn't it a bug in the first place? Shouldn't the guarantor Surname/Firstname data entry be blocked?
Comment 3 Nick Clemens 2016-03-03 12:37:48 UTC
Some libraries use this currently for patrons whose guarantor doesn't have a card. It lets them have a record of the name of a responsible party and I think removing this ability would be a loss.

I also think these fields can be used for organisation/affiliation when there may not be an account but still allows for grouping patrons.
Comment 4 Srdjan Jankovic 2016-03-14 03:14:52 UTC
I think that condition would benefit greatly if written as:
[% IF ( guarantorborrowernumber ) %]
...
[% ELSIF (guarantorsurname || guarantorfirstname) %]
...
[% END %]
