Description Christopher Brannon 2016-03-07 16:52:01 UTC
It would make sense to have a "Duplicate" options in guided_reports.pl on the New Report button outside of the "Use saved" phase of the page.

While the menu works, it doesn't deliver.  Duplicate just puts me in a new report, not a duplicate.

The menu could also be visible when editing.  I don't think that would pose any issues.  Do you?

The other menu items appear to work as expected.

I do not find this to be the case. Have you tried it with more than one report?

This is something which I describe in my latest update to the interface patterns page on the wiki:

"In this view the toolbar is not displayed, because the user is expected to either submit a completed form or choose the 'Cancel' link to abort the process of creating a new entry."

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Interface_patterns#The_.27New.27_entry_form

However, the option of duplicating something might be relevant during an edit process. I wonder if we should have a "Save as new report" option or something like that?

Yes.  You can see this in action here: http://screencast.com/t/TS06SJOhpyY

I would suggest a secondary Update button, such as "Update and Duplicate", since we don't use the term Save on the screen.

I still can't reproduce this problem. Can you please post the SQL of a report which is showing the problem? Does the "Duplicate" option work from the "Actions" menu on the list of saved reports?

I think that should be its own enhancement request.

The screencast I posted demonstrates me showing the original "Duplicate" working from the list of saved reports.  It also shows the SQL report I used.

I have tested again and it is working now.  This must be another case of not clearing the cache.  I will go ahead and sign off on this.

No it does not :)

Owen, to replicate:
/reports/guided_reports.pl?phase=Use saved
Actions > edit
Update SQL
Edit > Duplicate
Will open an empty form

Owen, feel free to embed it into your patch if it's easier for you (i.e. I don't care about the authorship).

I was having trouble getting it to load in a sandbox yesterday.  Sandboxes are not sending me e-mails, so had no clue what was happening.  Now we know.

Bug 16000 [Revised] Duplicate a report from the New Reports button

This patch creates a combined edit/duplicate/delete toolbar menu option
similar to the one on the bibliographic detail page. Also added is the
"Schedule" link which was previously only available from the main list
of saved reports. Also added is some deletion confirmation JavaScript
for deletions initiated from the toolbar.

To test, apply the patch and go to Reports -> Saved reports.

- Click "Show" in the menu for any saved report. The toolbar which
  appears on this page should show the new menu items.
- Confirm the behavior of all the buttons.
- As you check the behavior of the button actions, check that the
  toolbar is shown and hidden appropriately for each action.
- Confirm that the toolbar is correctly shown or hidden when building a
  guided report.
- Confirm that the "Schedule" button is shown or hidden according to the
  logged-in user's "schedule_tasks" permission.
- Confirm that clicking the "Delete" menu option triggers a JS
  confirmation.

Revision passes the sql data to the template in the case of the
"save_successful" screen.

Showing an existing export, the schedule button appears twice now.

Yep. I missed that one.  :/
Comment 25 Christopher Brannon 2016-03-24 22:27:47 UTC
Schedule button duplicates after update or save as well.
Comment 26 Owen Leonard 2016-03-25 12:44:43 UTC
Rather than resolve the merge errors with Bug 15421, I resolve that my patch is made obsolete by Bug 15421.
