Description Hugo Agud 2019-10-17 08:17:58 UTC
controlnumber 001 is an important field, I like it is empty by default at koha, but for example analytics could need to be filled...

It should be great be able to choose
1. Autonumber plugin for 001
2. Autofill via daily cronjob for filling 001 copying 999c if 001 empty
Comment 1 Inkeri Hakulinen 2021-05-14 12:36:23 UTC
This would be good feature to have. Preferably so that Koha fills automatically the 001 with Koha biblionumber (biblio.biblionumber), if the 001 is empty. This should happen quickly after the biblio record has been saved. This feature is needed for example the UseControlNumber setting to be used when linking bibliographic records.
Comment 2 David Cook 2021-05-16 23:38:47 UTC
Another place to do this would be in the Koha to MARC mapping potentially... 

Most fields allow for multiple mappings. A change to allow additional mappings for biblionumber and biblioitemnumber might be interesting...

This is not suitable solution for us, because sometimes the 001 field has different id than the Koha biblionumber.

Hi, I believe this is now a duplicate to bug 27981 that will allow to auto-add the biblionumber to 001.

There also has been a plugin for generating a number in 001 for a while now with the advanced editor.
