Description Nick Clemens 2017-03-14 14:19:41 UTC
Some libraries have found that when using course reserves an item will have the barcode removed. If this happens the edit links break. We should use the itemnumber for links.

Bug 18264 - Course reserves - use itemnumber for editing existing reserve items

This patch alters the crouse reserves module to use itemnumber as the
lookup method for existing reserves as opposed to barcode

To test:
1 - Apply patch
2 - Add some items to a course reserves - all should work as expected
3 - Delete the barcode for an item on reserve
4 - Note the edit link still resolves to the correct item

I do not understand the goal of this patch, why do barcodes are removed?

Some workflows at libraries cause this, I think electronic items or copies may only be assigned temporary barcodes and deleted when the items are not in use - in these cases things can no longer be edited in the reserves. 

While having barcodes is expected for adding items to course reserves currently I think this change opens up more possibilities and doesn't hurt anything and solves a potential issue.

This is wrong, this subroutine uses only one parameter (also see bug 18276).

How do we reach that?

Removed

In case of itemnumber lookup (no barcode) we display '(blank)' for barcode and itemnumber after


> How do we reach that?
As above case - it shouldn't happen, but makes for a nice error if someone messes up the link example with bad itemnumber:
http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/koha/course_reserves/add_items.pl?course_id=11&itemnumber=123456789123456798&action=lookup&return=11

Comment 11 Katrin Fischer 2017-03-20 20:50:32 UTC
Hm, blank is not translatable?
Comment 13 Katrin Fischer 2017-03-26 20:46:34 UTC
Touches some strings, will take a look at this for the next 16.11.x release.
Comment 14 Katrin Fischer 2017-04-02 16:40:51 UTC
I've filed bug 18367 about the string.
Comment 15 Katrin Fischer 2017-04-10 21:43:53 UTC
Hm, a little torn about pushing this one. Opinions?
Comment 16 Nick Clemens 2017-04-11 19:27:53 UTC
The 'bug' part is reproducible on 16.11, I filed as a bug because it can cause issues in those limited cases where barcodes are removed.
Comment 17 Katrin Fischer 2017-05-14 11:55:03 UTC
Tried to backport these patches, but with the patches applied, I have an error under Plack when adding an item to a course by barcode:
The method biblio is not covered by tests!

Koha::Item->biblio is added by bug 17974.
Comment 19 Katrin Fischer 2017-06-05 13:45:55 UTC
These patches have been pushed to 16.11.x and will be in 16.11.09.

Thx for the hint, Jonathan!
