Description Katrin Fischer 2021-04-26 12:39:40 UTC
In training there is always quite a bit of confusion on why the basket name field when creating a new basket/order in Koha is empty and mandatory. 

Koha generates internally unique IDs, so why does this need to be set?

I'd love to get some more information about how other libraries use this field.

We also had some requests for a custom order number in a specific pattern to be used there. I wonder if it would be possible to link the field up to something like one of our value_builders.pl.
