---- Reported by nengard@gmail.com 2009-12-15 16:09:55 ----

On serials when receiving items the date expected is being marked as the date received.  I think this is a simple fix to the receive form to change the label on expected date to read received date.  i also think this field should default to today not to the expected date.

This is a big issue for a library that is receiving a lot of serials and wants to keep accurate records.

At present the same field is used for both values. It can cause some confusion to new (and possibly not so new ) users 



---- Additional Comments From nengard@gmail.com 2010-02-18 23:36:30 ----

I don't think the same date should be used for both fields - I think we need to let the librarian enter the date received when receiving an item and leave the expected date solely for predictions and knowing when an item is late.

One of our customers noticed this issue (it's a long-stander), and I patched to update it to "today" when the issues is marked Arrived or Claimed.  Would that clear up this bug, Nicole?

It's a work around - but allowing the staff to put in the date themselves is ideal.

Pushed work-around patches.  Please test.

work around works - but am leaving open for a real fix.
Comment 2 Paul Poulain 2012-11-29 16:01:27 UTC
is it still an issue nicole ?
(otherwise said: is a critical bug open since 3 years really critical ;-) )
Comment 3 Nicole C. Engard 2012-11-29 19:22:14 UTC
I guess no one else has complained, so we can close it.
