Description Sophie MEYNIEUX 2017-12-28 14:35:30 UTC
If a patron does not have any email address, a print notification is generated instead of an email, so sending notification to Koha Admin is useless and should be removed.

At least it should be possible to choose if we want it or not with a script parameter

As there is no nice way to print the print notices at the moment we are still relying on the email - it's not useless to us :) Making it optional makes a lot of sense tho - if you have automated your printing somehow, you will no longer need the emails.

Some confusion lead to the creation of bug 20076 which might be invalid.

What do you mean by «no nice way to print»? There is a script to generate PDFs which takes into account custom formatting.

Yes, but there is on nice way to get those to the patrons. Putting them in a publicly accessible directory in on the web server is out of question (privacy). FTP complicated etc. Koha misses a way to print them from GUI or at least get them from there.

Can't type... no nice way to get those to the staff users [!]
