Hi, some of these pain points we do share in Germany. For example, I would be very interested in how you would prefer taxes to be handled in Koha from a US perspective. Of course in Germany we have slightly (or not so slighty) different laws and regulations. Disentangling the home library and the default pickup location is also something that I think makes sense (and have implemented once already for one use-case). The branch dependent login is certainly also useful and sounds sensible. In summary, I think it would make sense, to have this bug as the base for a tree of bugs, where each of the descendants tackles one particular aspect of this. Essentially what you suggested, but I'd encourage you to do exactly that. I do see the need too and think this is more manageable in smaller pieces. (In reply to Paul Derscheid from comment #1) > I do see the need too and think this is more manageable in smaller pieces. +1 to all of this. Good ideas A new field to set a borrower's pickup location separate from home library would be awesome. We did note that Aspen maintains it's own pickup location preference, along with an alternate pickup location preference. I would suggest that this might be a good thing to model. Maybe Aspen could sync settings with Koha down the road? Disregard my comment about Aspen. Aspen does not manage pickup locations independent of the home library. The default is directly tied to the home library. Please disregard my disregard. :/ I wish there were a way to delete my comments. I am having to learn more about how Aspen works and its settings. Yes, you can set the pickup location independent of the home library, if you have settings set correctly. This is definitely what we want to achieve at the very least in Koha.

Sometimes I wish there was a way to delete comments too, although that could lead to situations of "I never said that...". My goto way of going "ah please ignore that" is to add a "tag" of "obsolete". You should be able to do that by clicking on "[tag]" in the upper right corner of the comment, typing in obsolete, pressing enter, and then saving the changes.

Seems unrelated. |
